 It doesn't.  However, the correct math for calculating the increase is 1.1M (the increase) / 2.7M (the previous budget) = 40%
When the Dow goes from 13,900 to 14,000, the increase isn't calculated as 13,900/14,000 which would equal a 99% increase for the day.
Considering you adhere to the Obama method of calculating numbers, I can understand your confusion.
