resident's sum expenditure on goods
The two pie charts compare the percentage of resident's sum expenditure on six categories of goods and services in a European country over two separate years( 1958 and 2008).
Overall, it is evident that the amount of money was allocated for all aspects, except clothing, changing quite significantly over a 50-year period.
it can be seen from the charts, food accounted for the highest proportion of people's spending with 32% in 1958. However, this figure fell considerably to only 12% fifty years later. The opposite trend can be seen when we look at the luxury goods segment. The period from 1958 to 2008 saw substantial growth in the percentage of spending on this segment, becoming the second favorite item and having the same figure with the travel or transport sector.
In addition, while the proportion of budget spent on housing rose dramatically from 22% to 32% in 2008, European people paid out for entertainment decreased nearly twofold, which took up only 6% at the same time.Turning to the remaining sector, over the five decades ensuing experienced a slight drop by 2% in the percentage of the money was used for clothing.
