It produces positive 16.7%: (-50)-(-60) = 10 / ABS(-60) = 10 / 60 = 16.7%. error value is returned. Thus, context must be brought into the equation or the result becomes meaningless. You would then get the divide by zero error. This will remain relevant for all future references, hence posting a comment. PRICE QUOTED PERCENT HIGH/LOW What is original price? % calculation and presentation of %s is not as straight forward when minus figures involved and definitely not showing the true picture at all.
