subtraction and division of row values in a data frame column-CodePudding

The details of the dataframe are

   ID Price Result

    1    20    -0.1
    2    18     0.1667
    3    21    -0.2381
    4    16     0.1875
    5    19    -1

so i have to subtract the second row from first row then divide by the first row. (18-20)/20 = -0.1 but for the last row as there is no next value its like (0-19)/19 = -1 Please help me with this. I am getting NA at the end.
