Hi Mark,
Take a look at ?cumsum and see if this is what you want:
## your data output via dput() (easy to copy and paste from email to R)
dat <- structure(list(ACC = c("hal", "opn", "pga", "prt", "rbs"),
BAL = c(-171245.33,
-50487.63, 213440.38, 0.18, 8292.54)), .Names = c("ACC", "BAL"
), class = "data.frame", row.names = c("1", "2", "3", "4", "5"
))
dat$RTotal <- cumsum(dat$BAL)
dat
> dat
ACC BAL RTotal
1 hal -171245.33 -171245.33
2 opn -50487.63 -221732.96
3 pga 213440.38 -8292.58
4 prt 0.18 -8292.40
5 rbs 8292.54 0.14
Hope this helps,
Josh
