    Duplicate the query.

    In one, unpivot the Sales columns and remove the cost columns.

    In the other, unpivot the Costs and remove the sales columns.

    In each query, alter the data so you have Year in a column by itself

    'Merge as New' the two queries on  Year and Division (Inner Join).

    Expand and tidy as appropriate.
