Consider the following observations of a series:
Year 1 | Year 2 | Year 3 | Year 4 |
99 | 119 | 159 | 169 |
a. Calculate the growth rates for Year 1–Year 2,
Year 2–Year 3, and Year 3–Year 4. (Round your answers to 4
decimal places.)
Growth Rates:
Year 1-Year 2______
Year 2-Year 3______
Year 3- Year 4______
b. Calculate the average growth rate. (Enter your answer as a percentage, rounded to 2 decimal places, using intermediate calculations rounded to at least 4 decimal places.)
Average growth rate:______%
Year 1-Year 2 growth rate =(119-99)/99
=0.2020
Year 2-Year 3 growth rate
=(159-119)/119=0.3361
Year 3-Year 4 growth rate =(169-159)/159=0.0629
b)
Average growth rate =(0.2020+0.3361+0.0629)/3=0.2003 ~ 20.03 %
(please try 19.51 % if this comes wrong and reply)
