Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
Extract data (2001 sales): A=18.5, B=5.95, C=4.25, D=6.8, E=7.5.
Extract data (2005 sales): D=29.75.
Analyze Statement I: (B-C)/C * 100 = (5.95 - 4.25) / 4.25 * 100 = 40%. (Statement I is incorrect).
Analyze Statement II: (A-E)/E * 100 = (18.5 - 7.5) / 7.5 * 100 = 146.67%. (Statement II is correct).
Analyze Statement III: Ratio C(2001) : D(2005) = 4.25 : 29.75 = 1 : 7. (Statement III is correct).
Since II and III are correct, the answer is "Both II and III".
Final Answer: Option 4
