The statistics illustrate the proportion of money expenditure on various commodities in a certain European country between 1960 and 2000.

Overall, the figure for food was the most consumable for the majority of the time, while the opposite was true for the remaining categories. In addition, the proportion of transport surpassed food categories to the highest figures.

The year 1960, raking first was food consumption, with nearly 35%, which was twice as high as the figure for leisure. The figure for other remaining namely clothing, transport and energy, respectively 10%,9% and 6%. This dominance was challenged 40 years later by transport as the figure registered a noticeable growth of 15% in 2000 to surpass food figures. Food expenses, however, plunge dramatically, which is just less than 14% at the end of the period.

Thereafter, the figures for non-necessity spending on leisure activities, clothing, and energy consumption all display minor discrepancies, with figures varying from 3% to 10% during the timeline.
