Variance between rows, without date

I have a list of price per supplier and i need to determine the best supplier based on price, i need to do a division between min price and next min price , to get the % of variance . Can someone please help? 

 

Supplier Price Variance

1             100

2              101  what i need is ( 101/100-1)

3              120  (120/101-1)

and so one

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

Do you mean to find the variance in each product?

You could refer to the following column:

Column 2 =
VAR a =
    CALCULATE (
        MIN ( 'Table'[Total Price] ),
        ALLEXCEPT ( 'Table', 'Table'[Product] )
    )
RETURN
    'Table'[Total Price] / a - 1

To prevent misunderstanding, I created another two columns for your reference (Column1 & Column3).

Here is my test file.

@Anonymous , I do see any mention of items or material. But I used Item in the formula, Create new column

 

new column =
var _min =minx(filter(Table,[item]=earlier[item]),[Price])
return
if([Price]=_min,blank(),divide([Price],_min))

 

without item

 

new column =
var _min =minx(Table,[Price])
return
if([Price]=_min,blank(),divide([Price],_min))
