Look at it this way, would you take investment advice from an investment banker or from an entrepreneur? Both could present very strong cases but the Investment Banker has expertise in the subject and is more likely to be picked.

Explanation:
to calculate Singapore's economic growth rate we can use the future value formula (we could also use the rule of 72 but it is not very exact):
future value = present value x (1 + r) ⁿ
- future value = 900
- present value = 450
- n = 17
- r = ?
900 = 450 (1 + r)¹⁷
(1 + r)¹⁷ = 900 / 450 = 2
1 + r = ¹⁷√2 = 1.0416
r = 1.0416 - 1 = 0.0416 or 4.16%
