The bar chart below shows shares of expenditures for five major categories in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Japan in the year 2009.

The bar chart compares the percentage of the expenditure share of five categories in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Japan in 2009. Overall, the shares of expenditure for food, housing and health care were significantly higher those for health care and clothing in all countries. It is clear that the US had the highest housing expenditure share, while the UK had the lowest health care share.

As we can see the US had the highest housing share, at 26% of total expenditures. The UK followed, accounting for 24% of total expenditures. The figures for Canada and Japan were lower, with 21% and 23% respectively. However, Japan accounted for the highest food expenditure share, at 26% compared to 20% of those in the UK. The US and Canada had the lowest level of expenditure share of food, with 14% and 15% respectively.

In contrast, the chart shows Canada had the highest transport share, with 20%, whereas approximately 17% consumed in the US and 15% consumed in the UK. The transport share in Japan was lowest, at 10%.
It is noted that consumers in all countries spent the least share on health care and clothing. Only 7% of total expenditures in the US, a minor percentage of 2% of total expenditures in the UK, and around 5% of total expenditures in other countries.
