NJ5 said: This statistic looks misleading to me... There could actually be two companies "responsible for 99% of the industry growth" if they're calculating the way I think they are. Company A, B and C. In 2007 they sell 200, 100, 100. In 2008 company A goes out of business and they sell 0, 400, 400 (industry growth was 400). Woah, both company B and C are responsible for 75% of the industry growth! |
Great eye NJ5! I hadn't thought of that until you said it.
