    I don’t have that kit and haven’t covered the topic yet.
    Still what seems here is that you have to find the value of dividend while allowing for inflation.
    So, the answer below might be wrong but you can take it as a suggestion
    Taking 2000 as a base year:-

    Year Calculation. Actual dividend Actual Growth
    2000 1.7*100/100 1.70 00%
    2001 2.2*100/105 2.10 23.5%
    2002 2.2*100/110 2.00 -4.76%
    2003 2.3*100/113 2.04 2%
    2004 2.8*100/117 2.40 17.64%

    Yes, those are correct..as I glance through it. I did not have a base year, I was using the years such as 2001; 100/105 *2.2 =2.1
    2002; 105/110*2.2 = 2.1 etc. so I was getting it wrong..

    Thank u..I haven’t covered the topic either, but still trying to work the kit
