a. 114%.

b. 14%.

c. 13%.

d. 100%

e. 87%

b. 14%.

Explanation:

As per given data

Sale in year 1 = $260,000

Sale in year 2 = $297,500

Base year id year 1

Change in sales = Year 2 sales - year 1 Sales

Change in sales = $297,500 - $260,000

Change in sales = $37,500

Change in sales as percent = ( $37,500 / 260,000 ) x 100

Change in sales as percent =  0.1442 x 100 = 14.42% = 14% (rounded off to nearest whole percentage)
