In this report there are typically four rows of figures:
Row 1: The number of Consumers (in thousands).
Row 2: The vertical percentage is calculated by dividing the number of consumers in the current row by the number of consumers in the Total (or first) row. In some instances, an additional vertical percentage is calculated based on a subset of consumers, in which case there would be five rows of figures.
Row 3: The horizontal percentage is calculated by dividing the number of consumers in the current column by the number of consumers in the Total column.
Row 4: The Market Segment Index (in red) represents the relationship between the percentage of consumers in the segment and the percentage of consumers in the Total column. It is calculated by dividing the vertical percentage in the current column by the vertical percentage in the Total column and multiplying the result by 100.
