The provided bar chart gives insight into A&V Tech Company’s proceeds on three different types of items including laptops, smart phones and cameras between 2000 and 2004, measured in US dollars.
Overall, laptops were the most profitable product throughout the four-year period as opposed to the others. Besides, despite having undergone some losses in sales initially, both smart phones and cameras experienced considerable increase towards 2004.
In 2000, the company generated income solely from its sale of laptops, receiving over four million dollars. In the following year, although the sale dropped by 1 million with the advent of smartphones and cameras, it was able to recover to its original figure in 2002. Regarding the new items, the company reported a loss in revenue of nearly two million for the former and one million for the latter. In 2002, however, one million dollars were generated from cameras’ sale, which was still four times lower than laptops’ whilst smartphones’ revenue still remained negative at half a million dollars.
Over the next two years, sale figures for both cameras and smartphones went up moderately. In specific, both reached approximately three million in 2003, followed by a marginal loss in cameras’ sale in 2004 whereas the reverse was seen in smartphones’. Notably, revenue received from laptops were two times higher in 2003 and tripled others’ sales in 2004, standing precisely at 6 million and over 8 million respectively.
