Alpha company uses Rex as main raw material for manufacturing Item A, Item B, Item C and Item D.

The graph below shows the proportion of items produced and price trend of Rex. Annual Res_Index of an item in a given year is measured as follows:

Res_Index of Item A in Year 2013 = Absolute Value (Production of Item A in 2013 - Production of Item A in 2012) / Absolute Value (Rex Price in 2013 - Rex Price in 2012)

Question 65

1. 9
2. 8

For item B: 2011-12 i.e. 1 time
For item C: 2012-13, 2014-15, 2017-18 i.e 3 times
