Scenario:

I have 3 equations to compute, Earned Premium %, Loss Ratio %, Frequency %. The first two are simple to compute, (Field 1 / Field 2) * 100. However, the last computation requires the COUNT of Field 1 / Field 2 *100. Is there any way to simply do this or is it as involved as it appears to be?

Here's what I've tried:
 TABLE FILE CAR
SUM 
     CNT.DST.CAR.BODY.SALES AS 'COUNT,DISTINCT,CAR.BODY.SALES'
     CAR.BODY.DEALER_COST
     COMPUTE Cost_By_Sales/D12.2 = CAR.BODY.DEALER_COST / CAR.BODY.SALES;
BY  LOWEST CAR.COMP.CAR
WHERE CAR.COMP.CAR EQ 'BMW';
ON TABLE SET PAGE-NUM NOLEAD 
ON TABLE NOTOTAL
ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT HTML
ON TABLE SET HTMLCSS ON
END


Output:

Car: BMW
Sales: 5
Dealer Cost: 49,500
Cost_By_Sales: .62

What I would expect to see in Cost_by_Sales is 9,900(49,000/5).
