Soo, I bought the 1012 GMAT questions book by Princeton Review yesterday, and I've already stumbled upon some weird questions. Two answers were mixed up in the answer key in the Percents drill, which confused me greatly. This question however, is confusing the heck out of me mostly because I think the answer they give is just WRONG. If you have the book, it's question 4 in the Percent Change Drill on page 92. It says...
"Lori's Laminate has set an annual goal of cutting head count at its Texas factory by 7% yearly, while maintaining or increasing laminate tile production. Did Lori's Laminate achieve this goal from 2006-2007? 1)For 2006, the texas factory employed 100 workers and produced 1,110,000 tiles. 2)For 2007, Lori's Laminate employed 85 workers and produced 1,540,000 tiles."
The answer key says it's E, because "statement 2 is about the entire company, not just the Texas factory. However, if the entire company only employs 85 people in 2007, and the Texas factory ALONE employed 100 workers in 2006, wouldn't we have enough data to determine that LL reached it's goal of increasing more tiles and cutting it's head count at it's Texas factory by 7%, due to the fact that they MUST have let go at least 15% of their workforce at the factory?
Edit - ACK! Sorry for putting it in the wrong forum, this is my first post.
Edit 2 - Ah, I think I see my problem. While we can tell what the headcount was, we can't determine if tile production increased at the Texas factory, because slack could have been taken up in other factories. E it is!

Dear Newbie,
I enjoy the same status I know it could be difficult as you must be trying to figure out how to navigate in & around forums.
But as a practice put a single post with question only (you may choose to show hide answers).
And then post answers in the reply.
This helps since I dont see your solution along with the question and I can solve it the way I do it and post which might help you if its short and different from the way you have solved the problem.
