Level 200 module 212 - 1: Product to GL Account Mapping Cube Empty

Level 200 Module 207: Build a Data Model and Capsule Procedure to increase the CY budget by 5%
I might have missed it, but I think the instructions are missing the part where you should multiply py actual * 1.05 to get current year budget with 5% increase.
