Revenue in US dollars
Revenue (US$m)The revenue line above, converted at the average ¥/US$ rate of each figure’s own year — never today’s.
Between 1965–1984, Akai Electric’s revenue grew 30-fold in yen (19.6% a year). Converted at each year’s own average rate, the same span is 45-fold in dollars (22.2% a year), from $7m to $337m. The dollar figure grew faster because the yen was stronger at the end of the period than at the start — a yen of revenue in 1984 bought more dollars than one in 1965.
