INDEX(C5:C16,COUNT(C5:C16)-1)
=INDEX(C5:C16,COUNT(C5:C16))-
INDEX(C5:C16,COUNT(C5:C16)-1)

So one more question for you guys if you don't mind... using the same table as above but this time instead of subtracting C6-C5 and C7-C6. How would I make a formula to subtract each month only from January. So C6-C5, then C7-C5, then C8-C5 and so on?
thank you for your time and help

You may use C$5 instead of C5 in first approach and
=INDEX(C5:C16,COUNT(C5:C16))-C5
in second one
