Hi Monica,
Other words you'd like to highlight the cells where
=ABS($R1-$S1)>0.2*$R1
If so add this rule to conditional formatting and apply it to your range

Hi Sergei,
Isn't the formula you provided trying to figure out if it's greater than 20% of R1? Column R and Column S are both currencies, so I need to know if there is 20 cents or greater difference between the 2 cells. This can be 20 cents more or 20 cents less.

That was 20%. I guess the difference in 20 cents or more will be simply
=ABS($R2-$S2)>=0.2
