1. Mr. A's average (arithmetic mean) annual expenditure for the four-year period from year 8 through year 11 was close to
(all values In '000s)
Annual expenditure (average) = (18 + 20 + 22 + 25) / 4 = 85/5 = 21.25 (ie, closest to 22)
hence, 22,000 dollars.
2. If net income is defined as income minus expenditure, the difference between Mr A's net income in years four and nine is close to
(all values In '000s)
net income in year 4 = 23-25 = -2
net income in year 4 = 30-20 = 10
therefore, the difference between Mr A's net income in years four and nine = 10 - (-2) = 12 (ie, closest to 12500 dollars)
hence, 12,500 dollars.
