I want to know the answer to the following question:
When had the British East India Company overtaken the Dutch East India Company in sales?
All the background I'm provided with is that "A deal between the two nations left the spice trade of the East Indies archipelago to the Netherlands and the textiles industry of India to England, but textiles soon overtook spices in terms of profitability, and by 1720, in terms of sales, the British company had overtaken the Dutch.". Is that enough to answer the question?
Answer: yes
