Answer:

The correct answer is 14%

Explanation

Year 1: $600,000

Year 2: $684,000

Year 2 ($684,000) - Year 1 (600,000) = $84.000

Method "Rule of three" or Cross multiplication

$600,000------100%

$84,000-------- ?

$84,000 x 100= 8,400,000 then you divide the answer into $600,000

8,400,000/600,000= 14%
