We have that the the mean growth annual rate over this period is mathematically given as
GR=0.7152
Generally the Arithmetic equation for the Growth factor is mathematically given as
For 2007
GF2007=1+0.01(5.5)
GF2007=1.055
For 2008
GF2008=1+0.01(1.1)
GF2008=1.011
For 2009
GF2009=1+0.01(-3.5)
GF200=0.965
For 2010
GF2010=1+0.01(1.1)
GF2010=0.989
For 2011
GF2011=1+0.01(1.8)
GF2011=1.018
Therefore
The mean growth is
[tex]G\mu=\sqrt{1.8+0.989+0.965+1.018+1.011}\\\\G\mu=1.007152[/tex]
GR=1.007152-1*100
GR=0.7152
