Direction: Fredex, a Norwegian company is involved in the manufacture as well as trading of industrial batteries. The company manufactures some batteries in its factories and also imports some batteries from abroad. The company sells some of the batteries in domestic markets as well as exports some batteries to other countries. A few batteries have to be discarded every year because of a variety of reasons and cannot be sold/exported.

The following graph gives information on the opening stock, production and the closing stock of the batteries in each of the years between 2014 and 2019 (both included).

The following partially filled table gives information on the number of batteries imported, sold in domestic markets, exported or discarded over the years.

2) The closing stock of any year is same as the opening stock for the next year.

3) Production and domestic sales are called ‘internal activities’ while imports and exports are called ‘external activities’.

In how many years was the sum total of the batteries under ‘internal activities’ more than that under ‘external activities’?
