The diagram illustrates the top ten countries where fuels cost the most, and provides a breakdown of median monthly earnings and disbursements on petrol. Overall, there is a huge disparity of income in the listed countries but a limited variation in the spending of it on petrol.
Is is clear that there are enormous gaps of average income between those countries. The intermediate earnings in Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Belgium share regular payments of more than 3000 dollars per year. In contrast, ordinary people from Eritrea and Turkey earned the least, with only $450.09 and $924.64 respectively, accounting for just under one in three of those nationals in best paid countries.
It is also interesting to note that the average monthly petrol expenditures in the ten countries are similar with all around 300 dollars, varying from $273.05 in Belgium to $319.85 in Norway. However, the percentage in overall income shows a great difference. In detail, Norway, with normally 4329.07 dollars chargeable per month, have the lowest percentage for petrol expenses. And vice versa, in Eritrea where citizens are usually paid the least, the percentage is over 60 percent, which even doubles the second highest rate, 34.20% in Turkey.
