The table compares the figures for social and financial statistics among four different countires, namely Canada, Japan, Peru, and Angola, in 1994. Overall, Japan stands out in terms of both yearly average salary, life expectency and the rate of literacy, while the same is true for Canada when it comes to the average calorie intake, as well as adult literacy rates. However, both Peru and Angola showed lower figures across all categories.
Focusing on the countries with relatively better socio-economic figures, Japan had the highest annual income per person, at 15,750 dollars, closely followed by Canada, with $11,100. In both these countries, adult literacy rates reflected these numbers, reperesenting 99%. As for calorie supply for a day, Canadians were able to consume relatively more, at 3326 calories, while in Japan the number stood at 2846. However, the average lifespan was longer in Japan by around 2 years, at 78.
As for the remaining countries, they had poorer socio-economic conditions, especially Angola. In this country, the average annual salary was 130 dollars, the percentage of educated adults reflecting this low number, at 34%. As a result, life expectency was 47 years and calorie supply was at a little over 1700. In Peru, the statistics were a bit better due to better literacy rates, which was double that of the previous nation, average lifespan being 51 years, and annual income and daily calorie supply standing at $160 and 1927 respectively.
