A table shows 4 salespeople's quarterly revenue: Alice=$180K, Bob=$220K, Carol=$195K, Dave=$205K. The team target is $850K. By how much did the team exceed or miss the target?
Answer: Exceeded by $50K
Total = $180K+$220K+$195K+$205K = $800K; $800K vs $850K target = missed by $50K.
An area chart shows cumulative revenue over 12 months ending at $1.2M. The chart shows that 50% of annual revenue was reached by month 8. What was average monthly revenue in months 1-8?
