Share of total and percent change formulas


percent dashboard

What share of the total a row is, and how much it changed from the previous row.

The problem

You want each item's share of the total and its percent change.

Sample data

Column C: 1000, 450, 100, 100 (rows 2-5).

Formulas

Share:  =ROUND(C2/SUM(C$2:C$5),4)   -> 0.6061 (format as % for 60.61%)
Change: =(C3-C2)/C2                 -> -0.55 (-55%)

If the old value is 0, the change formula divides by zero.

Excel vs Sheets

Same in both.
