I have an iList that contains yearly values of several units of observation (e.g. BBV Value, Price, Tax, Other). Usually the value contains a decimal but some years in a range any given unit of observation be contain null or 0.
For many of those data units I need to graph their annual growth as a percentage, which I'd like to return in YearlyGrowthTable. Also returning the average annual growth, or a way to calculate that back in the main code after the data is returned, would be a bonus.
While I plan to duplicate this class for each data unit, I feel like there'd be a way to code this so I could pass each data unit through a single class if I were just a little smarter.
Below is my clumsy attempt to do so for BVV Value. I've included building the source YearlyValuesTable table rather than present an actual table to help you help me, but in reality the yearly values would be passed in from a DB read. Sorry if that makes it long

Year 2020 had null growth
Year 2021 had 106.3% growth
Just a couple of words of advice when doing your calculations - don't store values as percentages and don't truncate or round during calculations. Only ever format as a percentage and truncate when displaying your end results.
