Line Item Analysis and Trend Evaluation $($First Step$)$: In order to identify budget line items with the most significant historical growth or reduction patterns, please calculate the $**$PERCENTAGE CHANGE OF EACH LINE ITEM$**$ between each of the following periods provided in the spreadsheet: $1989-1990$ to $1990-1991$; $1990-1991$ to $1991-1992$; $1991-1992$ to $1992-1993$

So$,$ for example, what was the percent change on academic salaries from $1989-1990$ to $1990-1991$ and for each period moving forward. Then apply that approach to every line item so that I can see the percent change from period to period for each line item.

I've asked this question once before and someone came back to me with the dollar totals in the spreadsheet instead, which was not helpful. I$\text{'}$m trying to verify my calculations.
