Percent of total and percent of completion?

Question

would anyone mind helping me with which equations to use for a "percent of total" and percent of completion equations?
i have a total amount and i would like to list the various items that make up this total in chronological order so i can see the percentage in percentage and in actual dollars but also as a "percent completion" in percentage and in real dollars.
i am envisioning something like this for percent - percent completion - dollars per item - dollars per completion
line 1     1%          1%               $1          $1
line 2      2%          3%               $2          $3
line 3     97%          100%          $97          $100
total      100%                           $100
i am a little new to this so any suggestions will help a great deal.
THANKS

hi barry.
thank you.
i have a construction budget with - say - 18 items. these 18 items go chronologically from start to finish for the construction. i would like to show what percentage of the total budget each item is (percent of total dollars i guess) but i would also like to sum up the "percent completed" for each line item so that when you looked at the results for - say line 8 - you could see that you were X% completed for the whole project in terms of the total dollars allotted for the whole project (100%).
what i was envisioning was that it would be possible to do this both in terms of a number for the /percent/ of each of these but also in terms of a /dollar/ amount for each of these.
one set would be the individual line item and the other set would be added up as you went down the list and completed the work.
THANKS
