If I have the following information and i need to find the percentage increase in sales (November/December) would be required to exceed the Euro 10

If I have the following information and i need to find the percentage increase in sales (November/December) would be required to exceed the Euro 10 million operating income threshold (assuming that standard unit cost stay constant)?

As of October 31, 2016 the Operating Income was 9,272,140. The company forecasted 232,813 for November and December.

So, my question is, to get the % increase in sales needed do I only consider the 9,272,140 which will be 7.28% extra sales is needed or do I add

9,272,140+232,813=9,504,952 and the only 4.95% extra % sales will be missing?

Please let me know which is the correct approach on this one... do i need to consider the forecasted or not? I am attaching the file that i am looking at.
