Question 91

Mean of annual increase in sales from 2003 to 2008 (rupees in lakhs) is

Solution

Increase in sales (rupees in lakhs) from :

2003 - 2004 = (7.5 - 8.5) = -1

2004 - 2005 = (5.5 - 7.5) = -2

2005 - 2006 = (8.5 - 5.5) = 3

2006 - 2007 = (8.5 - 8.5) = 0

2007 - 2008 = (10.5 - 8.5) = 2

Sum = (-1) + (-2) + (3) + (0) + (2) = 2

$$\therefore$$ Required mean = $$\frac{2}{5} = 0.4$$
