What is the percentage increase in revenue from Q1 to Q2 for the North division?

The percentage increase in revenue for the North division from Q1 to Q2 is

25\%

The percentage increase is calculated as

\frac{\text{Q2 Revenue} - \text{Q1 Revenue}}{\text{Q1 Revenue}} \times 100\%

. For the North division,

\frac{100,000 - 80,000}{80,000} = \frac{20,000}{80,000} = 0.25 = 25\%

Find the absolute change in revenue for the North division from Q1 to Q2.

Change =

\$100,000 - \$80,000 = \$20,000

Percentage increase requires comparing the change relative to the initial starting value.

Identify the base (initial) value for the percentage calculation.

\$80,000

The base for percentage change calculation is always the initial period value (Q1).

Calculate the percentage increase by dividing the change by the base value and multiplying by

100\%

Percentage Increase =

\frac{20,000}{80,000} \times 100\% = 0.25 \times 100\% = 25\%

To convert a ratio to a percentage, multiply the fractional increase by

100
