Spend Difference between two period (Latest vs. Previous)

Hello folks,

Please bare with me here, it has been a while since I have used Qlikview and my scripting kinda sux.

I have a table like below:

  

MonthDifference in QVSpendDifference in Excel
Jan.00%39487.350%
Feb29.12%32966.90-17%
Mar-130.54%62196.3189%
Apr-162.46%98574.4958%
May198.05%54227.70-45%
Jun-28.49%60607.8512%
Jul88.07%40886.58-33%
Aug-115.66%66783.8063%
Sep75.37%49907.69-25%
Oct113.39%24518.73-51%
Nov79.04%6821.38-72%
Dec-45.88%17095.73151%

I am trying to get the spend difference between the latest period and the previous period.

In QV, I used this formula : if(RowNo() = 1,0,sum(cost) - Above(sum(cost)))

Please advise, what am I doing wrong here. Thanks a lot in advance.

If you need percentage, then may be this:

If(RowNo() = 1,0, (Sum(cost) - Above(Sum(cost))/Above(Sum(cost)))
