calculate difference in counts in 2 columns for corresponding values in other column
I have 4 columns with values (A and C are products that mostly overlap, B and D are counts. What I'd like to do is for the values that occur in both A and C calculate the difference between B and D, and put the result in E and F.
So for example 5028421938592 count is 6 in column B and count is 2 in column D.
The result would be then be in column E: 5028421938592 and column F: 4
5028421928548 3 5028421928548 1
5028421938592 6 3259190205192 7
5028421997131 1 5028421938592 2
5028421995748 4 5028421995748 1

I suggest in E1:
=unique(query({A:B;C:D},"select Col1 where Col1 is not null order by Col1"))
and in F1 and copied down to suit:
=iferror(vlookup(E1,A:B,2,0),0)-iferror(vlookup(E1,C:D,2,0),0)
