Comments on: Free Net Worth Spreadsheet http://www.moneyunder30.com/net-worth-spreadsheet Personal Finance for the Young and Ambitious Thu, 18 Mar 2010 05:56:56 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Kevin http://www.moneyunder30.com/net-worth-spreadsheet/comment-page-1#comment-212 Kevin Wed, 01 Oct 2008 06:45:33 +0000 http://www.moneyunder30.com/net-worth-spreadsheet#comment-212 Thanks for this. It's a good starting point so I don't have to make mine from scratch. The formatting is pretty! One gripe, though: The way you calculated percentage change is very odd. Your formula is 100%-(old value/new value), which gives the percentage change relative to the new value instead of relative to the the old value. A more natural formula would be (new value/old value) - 100%. Your formula calls a change from $100 to $200 a "50% change", while most people understand it to be a 100% increase. Thanks for this.
