Hi all,
Please read and leave comments for this one.
Thank you very much.
The bar chart illustrates the percentage in allocating expenses in five categories of four countries during year 2009.
American spend most of their income in housing, transportation and food, which are 26, 18 and 14 per cent respectively. On the contrary, health care and clothing are noticeably lower as 7 per cent and 4 per cent correspondingly. Canada and the UK depict a relatively similar trend in their expenditure, however they adversely allocate more fund on health maintenance than clothing. It is 4 and 1 per cent in health insurance, whilst 6 and 6.5 per cent in clothing, respectively.
The shares of expenditures in Japan are significantly different compared to the Western countries. Food consumption and housing are considerably high in all five categories, that is 23 per cent and 22 per cent, which is more than twice compared to transition expenses. Japanese employ slightly lower than 5 per cent in maintaining health and buying clothes.
In brief, all four countries consume more necessity goods and services than luxury ones.
