Question 72

Which of the following, shows the maximum year to year percentage growth in feedback?

Solution

Let the required percentage be P.

Option A: P_A = (6.5 - 4) * 100/ 4 = 62.5%

Option B: P_B = (8 - 5) * 100/ 5 = 60%

Option C: P_C = (7 - 4) * 100/ 4 = 75%

Option D: P_D = (9 - 5.5) * 100/ 5.5 = 63.63%

Thus, option C shows the maximum year-on-year growth and is the answer.
