Procedural Guide for Polynomial Subtraction in Budgeting

As a training coordinator, you are drafting a procedural reference guide for new financial analysts on how to combine complex budget formulas. Describe, from memory, the exact step-by-step process of subtracting the cost formula (a2+5ab6b2)(a^2 + 5ab - 6b^2) from the revenue formula (a2+b2)(a^2 + b^2). In your explanation, recall how to correctly distribute the subtraction sign, group the corresponding like terms, and state the final simplified expression.
