Hi there,

I agree that this case is a bit confusing with exhibits from multiple years.

That said, you've assumed the case is in 2020! If there are dates in exhibits/a case you always need to ask “what year are we in”.

This case should have clarified, but it's clear that for exhibit 3 they want you to use 2016/17 numbers.

Dear Ian, Thanks for your answer. What I find a bit confusing is that exhibit 1's title tells 2020.
Best,
Luca
