Can a pivot table calculate the difference between two fields

The Total line sums the Budget and Actual total to show 19. I would like the Total line to show the difference between Budget and Actuals. So instead of the sum of 19, I would like the pivot table to ...

Excel's filters should give the option to filter duplicate cells.

Negative Times Displayed as # # # #
Cells A1:C1 are formatted as "h:mm:ss." A1 is the time it took to complete a task the first attempt. B1 is the time of the second attempt (preferably with a faster time). I want to have C1 show the difference of the two attempts (B1-A1). This calculates the difference perfectly if A1 is less than B1 (if it took longer the 2nd time). However, Excel returns "######" if A1 is greater than B1. ...
