The charts show gross sales in five departments in the years 2010 and 2012.

The pie charts reflects the differences in revenues of five categories of products in a department store over the course of 3 years. Clearly the company's decision to hire new leadership to alter the store's sales trajectory has led to increased trade to everyday items and a decrease in big-ticket items.

In 2010, the electronics and fashion departments accounted of 65% of the store's gross revenue; by 2012, this number had dropped to exactly half of all sales. Although electronics remained the highest grossing department, it nevertheless showed the greatest overall reduction at 10%. Furniture, the other big-ticket item, saw sales shrink by more than half over the 3-year span falling to 4% from 10%.

Grocery items and housewares, meanwhile, increased significantly, jumping from 10% and 15% respectively to 23% each in 2012. For groceries, this is a jump of more than double the previous sales figure. This confirms a shift by consumers to more staple goods and everyday items, furniture and groceries each contributed to 10% of sales in 2010, with inverse changes in 2012.
