in 1994 shouldnt be 90 i dont understand how its 93?

kntombat
Well, I do not know whether my solution is correct.
Nevertheless, here it is.

If I take revenue for the base year (1987) to be 100 then
1988 => 130
1989 => 97.5
1990 => 126.75
1991 => 101.4
1992 => 86.19
1993 => 103.428
1994 => 93.0852

If my calculations are correct than the answers have to be

\(1)\) less than || \(2)\) more than 25% || \(3)\) 4.

Hi Bunuel, Is there a faster method to calculate/estimate this? I did the calculations and it took me a lot of time. Wondering what's the optimal approach for such calculation heavy questions. Please advise.

The following graph shows the percent change in revenue for a manufacturing company from the years 1988 to 1994.
On the basis of the graph, please answer the questions that follow.

1. The revenue for 1994 was the revenue for 1987.

2. The revenue in 1990 was greater than the revenue in 1987.
