The bar graph provides information on how the cost of food and drinks, restaurants and hotels, and entertainment changed among five age groups of residents in Great Britain in 2004.
Overall, it can be seen that the 76+ age group of people spend most of their budget on food and drink, whereas the 61-75 age group people spend less money in restaurants and hotels, as compared to other age groups.
Looking at the food and drink data set in more detail, it is evident that the under 30 years age group of residents spend 6% of their budget on food and drink, which is the lowest proportion as compared to other age groups. The money spent on food and drink increased significantly in senior age groups. The 76+ age group of residents spend almost 23% of their money on food and drink, which is the highest proportion in this bar graph.
Turning to the restaurant and hotel data set, it is clear that spending money on restaurants and hotels has changed and fluctuated. The under 30 age group of residents spent 14% on restaurants and hotels. But, then this number went down about 12% in the 46-60 age group. This proportion dipped 5% in the 61-75 age group. The number went up in the 71+ age group of people, who spend 7% of their money on it.
Finally, 6% of the under 30 age group of residents spend their budget on entertainment. And this proportion continued to go up until the 61-75 age group, and it peaked at its highest point, which is almost 23%. While this percentage fell 10%, and remained at 13% in 75+ age group of residents.
