Finding the percentage difference of two or more numbers
 

I need to find the difference of 2 or more numbers and then show the
percentage "+ or -" in a separate cell.

For example, if wanted to see the growth or decrease of a club
attendance for 3 yrs.

Year 1 = 345
Year 2 = 514
Year 3 = 231

Finding the percentage difference of two or more numbers
 

If your data is in Cells A1:A3, then
B2: =(A2-A1)/A1
Format that cell as Percent

Then, copy B2 down as far as needed.

Does that help?

Regards,
Ron

If you want to show just that attendance has either increased or
decreased by a + or -, use this:

(If your data is in Cells A1:A3, then
B2: =IF(A2A1,"+",IF(A2<A1,"-","No Change"))

Column A Column B Column C

result the percentage (growth or decline %) in Column D1

If you data is in A1, A2, A3 respectively then, in B2 put =(A2-A1)/A1
and copy this to all the cells below adjacent to data in an A column
cell. Format column B to %.

For what you want, column B is not significant. Therefore, place this
in D1:
(C1-A1)/A1 and format it as a percentage.
