Understanding

Application

In the graph, we can observe that the possibility of having expenditure more than 40% from previous year is high in 2015 only. So we need to check it first.

Expenditure in year 2014 = 175

Expenditure in year 2015 = 250

Percentage increment = (250 - 175) × 100/175 = 42.85%

Hence, 2015 is the correct answer.
