    June 2009 exam, for question on JJG Co
    It is stated that the EPS increased with an average of 14.9% per year.

    How is the 14.9% calculated?

    Is it by taking (18%+13%+14% )/ 3 years ?

    No – you take the geometric mean (which I explain in my lectures in relation to dividend growth), and the answer actually says this!

    the average growth rate = (third root of (1.18 x 1.13 x 1.14)) – 1 = 0.149 or 14.9%

    Alternatively the average growth rate = third root (100/66) – 1 = 0.149 or 14.9%
