    The percentage increase in the amount invested in raw-materials as compared to the previous year, for different years are:

    For 1996  = [ \( \frac { (225-120) } {1 20 } \) ] % = 87.5%

    For 1997 = [ \( \frac { (375--225) } {225 } \) ] % = 66.67%

    For 1998 there is a decrease.

    For 1999 = [ \( \frac { (525-330) } {330} \) ]% = 59.09%
