The bar chart below shows the percentage of weekly income used by families in one country to pay for eight items over two years: 1968 and 2018.
In 1968, 35% of the wages of families in this area were used to pay for food. Spending on housing, clothing and footwear accounts for about 10%, and the numbers for leisure, transportation, personal goods and household goods are also roughly the same (about 8%). In contrast, only a small fraction of weekly income is used for fuel and power, with about 6%.
After half a century, in 2018 the different spending patterns evolved even further. Families have more than tripled their leisure time to about 23% since 1968, reaching a peak. In addition, they also spend most of their weekly earnings on transportation and housing, about 14% and 18% respectively. In contrast when spending on food halved, we saw a sharp decline in spending on fuel and power, clothing and footwear, and personal goods, by 5% or less, reaching the minimum level. After all household goods are the only cost constant at 7%
Overall, the highest level of household spending in 1968 was on food while the highest level of spending was on leisure spending in 2018. Among these categories, food, fuel and power , clothes and footware as well as personal goods tended to decrease compared to 1968 while housing, transport and leisure increased and the remaining group of goods (household goods) remained unchanged
