My answer would be E.
(1) Insufficient -- you need the ratio of first half sales to second half sales.
(2) Insufficient -- Doesn't tell you anything. Because you're working with ratios, the actual price doesn't matter. The ratio of prices is enough. This additional info doesn't help with the problem.
(C) Insufficient. Because (2) doesn't tell you anything useful, you are still left with only (1) off of which to work. We already decided (1) wasn't sufficient.
