Growth rates may measure the percentages change in revenue, net income, earnings...
The speed at which a plant will grow. For purposes of this key it is equal to the average rate of growth as determined by field trials.
percentage rate at which the economy, stocks, or earnings are growing. The economic growth rate is normally determined by the growth of the Gross Domestic Product. Individual companies try to establish a rate at which their earnings grow over time. Firms with long-term earnings growth rates of more than 15% are considered fast-growing companies. Analysts also apply the term growth rate to specific financial aspects of a company's operations, such as dividends, sales, assets, and market share. Analysts use growth rates to compare one company to another within the same industry.
The rate at which growth occurs, usually expressed as the generation time.
the increase in mass per unit of time
With reference to wood, the rate at which wood has been added to the tree at any particular point, usually expressed in the number of annual rings per inch. May also be stated as "annual leader growth."
The rate of increase of cellular density per unit time.
The change in bacterial numbers over time, typically expressed as the change in cell number per time interval.
the rate of increase in size per unit time
A company's growth rate is the rate at which the company's growth, in terms of such things as its earnings and revenues, has changed or is expected to change. Investors pay close attention, both to a company's earnings and revenues to make their investment decisions.
Rate at which an animal achieves certain weights between two dates.
the change (increase, decrease, or no change) in an indicator over a period of time, expressed as a percentage of the indicator at the start of the period.
The change in the number of people in a given population over a period of time, due to natural increase or decrease and net migration (both domestic and international). Growth rate, or the number of people added to or subtracted from a population, is expressed as a percentage of the population existing at the beginning of the time period.
The rate per individual at which a population's abundance increases. For example, if for every 1 individual in a population at time t there are 2 individuals at time t + 1, then the population growth rate is 2.
This is an expression of population increase in numbers expressed as log10 cfu/h.
The percentage rate of change in some financial characteristic of a company. See Historical 5-year Growth Rate, Projected 5-year Growth Rate, Dividend Growth Rate, Sales 3-year Growth Rate, and Net Income 3-year Growth Rate.
The amount which the uppermost twigs of a woody plant grow in one year; specifically, a slow growth rate is 1 foot or less per year, a medium growth rate is 1 to 2 feet per year, and a rapid growth rate is greater than two feet per year.
The number of persons added to (or subtracted from) a population in a year due to natural increase and net migration expressed as a percentage of the population at the beginning of the time period. (Also see World Bank Population Growth Rate information).
The rate at which stocks, the economy, or earnings grow. Analysts often use the growth rate to compare similar assets within the same industry.
the rate at which a population is increasing (or decreasing) in a given year due to natural increase and net migration, expressed as a percentage of the base population.
In group theory, the growth rate of a group with respect to a symmetric generating set describes the size of balls in the group. Every element in the group can be written as a product of generators, and the growth rate counts the number of elements that can be written as a product of length n.
