Stetson Inc.'s sales for the 2021 were $16 million. Sales were $8 million 5 years earlier. (a) At what rate did the sales grow? (b) Supose someone calculated sales growth for Stetson in part (a) as follows: "Sales doubled in 5 years. This represents a growth of 100 % in 5 years; dividing 100% by 5 results in an estimated growth rate of 20% per year" Explain what is wrong with this calculation.
