Simply using avg() function with grouping by account_id will fetch account wise averge values. © Second part is to figure out overall average value. We can achieve it using avg() function across table. no group by clause needed here. Third part is to compare and find out which accounts are performing better than overall average. We have used having clause against a sub query that returns overall average.
