Freight Volume YoY Growth

MediumSQL · PostgreSQL

Problem

Write a query to calculate the year-over-year growth of freight volume by region at Uber Freight.

Use the freight_shipments and regions tables. Compare each region's 2024 freight volume with its 2023 volume. Treat missing prior-year volume as NULL, and avoid division by zero.

Output

  1. One row per region with 2024 shipment activity
  2. Columns: region_name, current_year, current_volume, prior_volume, and yoy_growth_pct
  3. Calculate growth as a percentage, rounded to two decimal places
  4. Order by region_name ascending
