Another for E,

to answer the question we need to know either percent change in BOTH price and quantity (revenue=price x quantity) or exact values of prices and quantities.

This can quickly be deduced to either C or E.

Now lets say S=# of sofas and P= price

So R should equal S(P)

For this year the equation R=1.10S(P+33)

From this we don't really get any info.

So I say E.
