    The Unit 2 Individual project states that I am to determine the year-to-year percentage annual growth in total net sales for the Micro Chip Computer Corporation. After looking at the chart I do not think that the Micro Computer Corporation is going to make the +10% annual revenue growth in 2009. I got this by taking each year and adding them together and then dividing them to get the year-to-year growth. After doing this I took all of the percentages and averaged them out. This is showing that there is a -3.1% drop. Also using the CAGR there is a -6.8% which is not helping the company show that it will make the revenue growth. With this it will be very hard for the company to actually make a +10% revenue growth in 2009. Below is showing the loss and gains that were made every year.…
