Walters: Our neighboring country had a much higher percentage increase in GNP (Gross National Product) over the last ten years than our country did. So, their economic prosperity increased relative to ours.
Kostamo: I disagree. The GNP of our neighbor might have increased by a greater percentage, but the absolute amount of the increase in GNP was certainly greater for our country.
Walters and Kostamo disagree about whether
A. change in the economic prosperity of the neighboring country relative to their country is accurately measured by comparing their percentage changes in GNP
B. change in the economic prosperity of the neighboring country is more accurately measured in terms relative to their country than in terms relative only to the neighboring country
C. changes in the GNP of the neighboring country should ever be compared to changes in the GNP of their country
D. there were any improvements at all in the economic situation of the neighboring country during the ten years being considered
E. the GNP of the neighboring country increased by a greater percentage over the last decade than did the GNP of their country
Kostamo: I disagree. The GNP of our neighbor might have increased by a greater percentage, but the absolute amount of the increase in GNP was certainly greater for our country.

I don't understand how is A the right answer, they are arguing about whether the GNP of the neighbouring countries were greater than the Overall increase in GNP for their own country, there is no argument here about the economic prosperity of their country!
