The pie charts illustrate data on the changes in the expenditure on various services and goods in a nation in Europe between 1958 and 2008, measured in percentage.
Overall, it is clear that spending on food, luxury commodities, and housing increased, while the opposite was true for the remaining categories, namely entertainment, travel/ transport, and clothing throughout the observed period.
More specifically, clothing accounted for the largest percentage of people’s spending among other kinds of commodities, with a rate of roughly one-third in 1958, decreasing significantly to over 10% after five decades. Meanwhile, the figure for luxury items was by far the lowest compared to the remaining categories, with only 7% in 1958. Its figure, however, had risen rapidly to 17%, reaching a similar level as food expenses by 2008.
In terms of services, on the other hand, people tended to favor housing over entertainment, with a proportion of 22% and 18% in 1958, respectively. While the former figure experienced a dramatic rise of 10% in 2008, the later figure witnessed the opposite trend, with a two-percent reduction. Additionally, expenditure on travel/transport dropped to half, from 13% in 1958 to 6% in 2008.
