Explanation:


  1. (9.00 - 7.50)/(7.50) * 100\% = 20\% \: increase

  2. (6.50 - 5.00)/(5.00) * 100\% = 30\% \: increase

  3. (4.50 - 2.00)/(2.00) * 100\% = 125\% \: increase

  4. (2.00 - 2.50)/(2.50) * 100\% = - 20\%

In order to get the increase or decrease, we need to get the difference of the two prices first. Then, pick a "reference year".

From the calculations, notice how I made the earlier years as my reference points. If the calculations produced positive results, therefore, it has increased. If it produced a negative results, from the reference year's price, it has decreased in price.
