I think I am calculating my average differences all wrong for my spreadsheets and I am drawing a blank on how to get the correct number. Right now I am calculating the difference per row (COLUMN I) and then getting the average of the column that is calculating the row's difference. Depending on the qty in the row some of the percentages are way off if there is a small qty (I25). I think I should be getting the totals of the 2 columns I am comparing(K5,=(ABS(SUM(H:H)-SUM(E:E))/SUM(E:E))) , so I want to make sure I am thinking of this correctly, if I do it the second way I would get a 1.34% discrepancy compared to being off 7% the current way.

Excel Facts

Why does 9 mean SUM in SUBTOTAL?
It is because Sum is the 9th alphabetically in Average, Count, CountA, Max, Min, Product, StDev.S, StDev.P, Sum, VAR.S, VAR.P.
You are correctly calculating the average in Cell K5.
In effect, the same formula can be used on Cell I30, assuming that is the Row for your total amounts:
Excel Formula:
=ABS((SUM(H:H)-SUM(E:E))/SUM(E:E))
