Paul,

Thanks for your many informative posts in this forum.

I should know better than getting involved in this,
but isn't the growth rate from one year to the
next year is computed by dividing the value for
the 2nd year by the previous year? (of course,
subtract 1 and multiply by 100 to get the percentage)

Using the previously posted figures, the last column
should be changed

Year Sales Year/Year Year/Year
Ratio Percentage Gain
1992 0 5844
1993 1 8782 1.5027 50.27%
1994 2 11521 1.3119 31.19%
1995 3 16202 1.4063 40.63%
1996 4 20000 1.2344 23.44% (est.)

Total growth rate over 4 years = (20000/5844) = 3.4223
Average growth rate over 4 years = the 4th root of 3.4223
= 3.4223 ^ 0.25 = 1.3601 (or 36.01%)

Projecting out at 36%

Year
1997 27200
1998 36992
1999 50309
2000 68420

So that's 50 Billion in fiscal 1999. This is probably
how the person who wrote the report came up with it.

Most Intel stockholders would be happy with 30% going
forward, which would project out to be about 44 Billions
in fiscal 1999.
