The table illustrates the amount of money an Australian family spent per month in 1991 and 2001. The table divides their expenses into six different types. Overall, it can be seen that 10 years after 1991, people spent more amount of money in total.
In 1991, the amount of 155 AUD was paid for food, slightly less than that of 2001, which was 160 AUD. Similar changes were seen in housing and other goods and services, 95 AUD and 250 AUD were spent in 1991 before increasing minimally to 100 AUD and 270 AUD in 2001, respectively. However, the expenditure on electricity and water had a significant change, from only 75 AUD in 1991 to 120 AUD in 2001.
On the other hand, Australian people spent about 30 AUD on clothing in 1991, they decreased their expenses to 20 AUD in 2001. This trend was also seen for transport, which people spent 70 AUD in 1991, but only 45 AUD was spent in 2001. However, these expense declines did not affect the change in total expenditure. It rose by 40 AUD in 10 years, from 675 AUD in 1991 to 715 AUD in 2001.
