    Cost + markup =selling price
    100 + 33 1/3 = 133 1/3

    Given any figure use proportions to find others.

    Cost + Mark-up = Sales

    66 2/3 + 33 1/3 = 100

    I don’t think cultural web is relevant to P5

    Taking restaurants, market sector:

    Goes from 10,752 to 10,968 in three jumps, from 2010 to 2011, from 2011 to 2012 and from 2012 to 2013. There are three periods of growth.

    If annual growth = g, then

    10,752(1 + g)^3 = 10,968 [^3 = cubed]

    (1 + g)^3 = 10,968/10,752

    1+g = Cube root of (10,968/10,752) = 1.0067

    g = 0.0067 or 0.67%

    Other figures similarly.
