ECON1102 Chartbook (1 Viewer)

[poh123]

Hi, just wondering if anyone can help me with table 1 of the chartbook. I added up all the values for the years 2007 for household consumption and then all the values for 2008. Then I did ((2008-2007)/2007)*100 for the growth rate, however it doesn't correspond to the template. Can someone point me to the right direction?

Use fiscal years.

this is a ridiculous 5%, just chuck it in tute participation... I always seem to be the only one participating - so that would help encourage discussion

When I use fiscal years I get 3.5%, when I use 2007 quarters and 2008 quarters I get 1.9% and the template says 4.7%. Not sure what I'm doing wrong.

September to June. It should work out. Unless you are using current prices.

Sept-June as NBGHHS said, use the years prior to what you're doing and you shoudl get the right answer
