Good Evening all,

This may be a stupid question but if anyone could help it would be much appreciated!

I am stuck on task 2 which relates to index's, i know how to calculate these, but its the wording on this task that confuses me.....

'using page 4 of the answer booklet show each quarters sales figures for 2005 and 2006 in terms of their value for Quarter 4'

I have listed the sales figures for each quarter and the index figures that have been given but don't understand on rest of the task!!!

Thanks

Sarah

I can't locate the actual question - what is it you're working from?

sarahuk3

It is from skills test D2033.

Thank you

You'll need to recalculate the actual sales figures for both years to the figures of the fourth quarter (which ever year it is).

As you want everything to be the figures of the 4th quarter, this will be your base year and all the other sales figures will need to be calculated based on their index numbers to have the same index as the base quarter figures.

Ah, so the fourth quarter is the base figure for each year.

Thanks

Sarah
