Default Trying to forecast the future


I need help with a re-forecast I’m trying to create. As you can see from
the table, the planned % Subset of Total from Feb 06-Dec 06 do not look
like they will follow the historical trend. What I want to do is
re-forecast the subset column, based upon the % Subset of Total in
prior years/months. I know there must be a statistical formula(s) that
I should use, but I can’t figure out which one(s). Thanks in advance!
