hi, but why stacked area chart doesnt work? i think it can also show the time line as well as the revenue vs cost.

maybe b/c the question is about over time. While stacked chart is best use to show the magnitude of changes.

stacked area chart display how several quantities combine to make a whole, as it shows how each part or category contributes to the whole amount. donut chart show you the relationship of parts to the whole by dividing the data into segments ---line chart present trends over time Correct Answer waterfall chart is useful in displaying a series of positive and negative changes.
