Literal question
In fiscal year [insert three complete fiscal years ago], three fiscal years ago, what were total annual sales for this establishment?
Interviewer instructions
Total sales three complete fiscal years ago include the value of all annual sales counting manufactured goods and goods the establishment has bought for trading. If an establishment makes blue jeans and also imports blue jeans for resale, total sales is the value of all blue jeans sold, both produced and imported. Revenue or receipts for all services rendered and any sales of merchandise for the year even though payment may have been received at a later date are included in total sales. Firms operating on a commission basis should report commissions, fees, and other operating income, not gross billings or sales.
