The given bar graph indicates the average weekly spending of families in one country, in percentages of weekly income, on different categories for the years 1968 and 2018.
Overall, it is evident that while food consumption dominated in the earlier year, later periods witnessed an increased focus on leisure activities and housing.
In 1968, families allocated around 35% of their weekly income toward food expenditures. However, by 2018, this percentage had significantly decreased to slightly over 20%. During the same period in 1968, spending on housing and clothing accounted for 10%, while expenditures on fuel amounted to just over 5% of their weekly earnings.
In contrast, leisure activities emerged as the primary spending category for families in 2018, constituting approximately 22% of their weekly wages. Housing followed closely as the second priority, with families dedicating nearly 20% of their income to accommodation. Despite being the least substantial expense in 2018, fuel and power, along with personal goods, experienced a decline. However, spending on household goods remained consistent across both periods.
