The chart below shows the average cost of monthly contract for four different mobile (cell phones) in a European country from January to September 2002, measured in euro.
The chart illustrates the costs of four mobile phone contracts (in euros) monthly in a European country during the first three quarters of 2002.
As can be seen, the general trend is of an increase except for Sim TX, with the most remarkable growth being Alpha, which overtook Domo to become the most expensive provider.
In January, Domo had the highest price of €15, followed by Lex and Sin TX, which cost €12 and €9.5 respectively. With just €5 a month, Alpha was the cheapest mobile provider. Eight months later, Domo experienced a remarkable rise despite at different paces, reaching a peak of €25 a month in August before falling slightly to a low of €23 in September. Alpha had an identical pattern but rose more dramatically. Despite a period of stability of around €5 and €6 until June, it witnessed a surge in price and surpassed Domo to become the priciest contract with €25.
After a €2 decrease in February, the price offered by Lex bounced again and climbed gradually to a high of €18, albeit a mild fluctuation during the period. Sim TX, on the other hand, had a reverse trend. After a significant increase of €5 in June, it suddenly declined to return its original price.
