To solve this question we can consider the company assets as follows

1992 = 100, 1993 = 500 (since it is 400% greater than in 1992) and 1994 = 2000 (since it is 500% greater than in 1993)

Now, we are told that the company assets in 1992 are 100. Hence, for 1994 we will have 2000/100 *N = 20N

Hope this helps

The trick to these problems are wording. Don't mis-understand the question when it comes to % greater than, % of.. etc.

I had missed so many questions because it simply ignored the wording of these questions.
