The bar chart below shows shares of expenditures for five major categories in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, and Japan in the year 2009.

The bar graph demonstrates consumers’ spending in United States, Canada, the United Kingdom and Japan in 2009 on five major categories, namely food, housing, transportation, health care and clothing.
As can be inferred from the bar chart, the shares of expenditures for food products, real estate and commuting registered the highest figures out of five sectors examined. It is clear that health and clothing-related categories held the market shares by a very small margin.
In the UK and Japan, minimum spending of residents on food was one-fifth of the total expenditures, while Americans and Canadians only spent less than 15% on this category. An relatively opposite patterns were seen in the transportation expenditure shares, where Canada and the US registered the highest and second-highest figures at 20% and 17% respectively, compared to 15% in the UK and only 10% in Japan. Comparatively, residents’ expenditure on arranging accommodation in all four countries was rather uniform. In particular, the highest amount of money spent on housing was recorded for the US, at 26% of the total expenditure, followed by the rest of examined countries accounting for well above 20%.
In the year of 2009, it can be seen that the US spent the largest amount of money for health care among other nations, comprising 7% of the total spending. Meanwhile, residents of Canada and Japan made a 4 percent spend on health care, and British's’ medical expenses were negligible with the data stood at just 1%. Such discrepancies were not seen in clothing expenditure shares, where the nationalities managed their budget for clothes in the vicinity of 5%.
