I am an accountant and I assume the city never defined sales very strictly. I could probably find a way to show a 10% decrease in a three month period for any restaurant. <
To begin with compare a quarter with 12 weekend periods to one with 13.

Did'nt say anything about a quarter, they said three months. Also, they had to compare with a three month period for each year three years prior.

No one has been able to explain to me WHY a business owner would LIE about his business being down if, in fact, it is UP. WHY would a proprietor fight for the right to go back to making LESS than he is now?
