The diagram illustrates the online expenditures for retail sectors in Canada during the period
of 2019 and 2020.

The diagram compare four retail sectors which are Electronics & Appliance, Food & Beverage, Home
Furnishings and electronic appliances in Canada in terms of the proportion of their internet sales in
two years, 2019 and 2020.

It is noticeable that most people in Canada spent a lot of money in clothing during 2019
while electronic appliances in 2020.

Overall, the proportion of online sales for each of the four sectors changed significantly from 2019 to
2020. While the figures for food and beverages and also video games increased, the figures for the
other two sectors fell.

It is observed that, in 2019, clothing was the highest sales in Canada to about 38% while
home and kitchen came in the second place with a slight different not until 10%. Meanwhile,
groceries was the least product which was purchased by Canadian to only about 14% while
electronic appliances was a little above it nearly to 20%.

In 2019, the proportion of online sales of food and beverages was 22%, but this rose to 32% in 2020.
The percentage for internet sales of video games also went up, by 5% from the 2019 figure of 18%.
On the other hand, the most significant amounts are paid for electronic appliances by
people in Canada in the next year (almost half of the total expenditure) while home and kitchen was
the least sale which only a quarter from it. However, the same rates were expended in clothing and
groceries nearly 22% each.

In contrast, the percentages of the online sales of the other sectors decreased. The most dramatic
fall was in the home furnishings retail sector. While this figure was 25% of the total online sales of
these four sectors in 2005, it fell to just 15% in 2010. There was also a decrease in the electronics
and appliances sector, which saw a fall from 35% in 2005 to 30% in 2010.
The graphs below give information about computer ownership as a percentage of the population
between 2002 and 2010, and by level of education for the years 2002 and 2010. Tot: 199 words

The bar charts illustrates the proportion of computer belonging during the period of 2002 and 2010,
and by education stages in two years, 2002 and 2010.

The bar charts show data about computer ownership, with a further classification by level of
education, from 2002 to 2010.

Overall, it can be seen that the trend of computer ownership has gradually increased during 2002 to
2010, while postgraduate students were the highest level who owned the computer both in 2002
and 2010.

A steady but significant rise can be seen in the percentage of the population that owned a computer
over the period. Just over half the population owned computers in 2002, whereas by 2010 three out
of four people had a home computer.

It is also noticeable that the number of people who owned computer in 2002 just over half the
population owned computers, whereas by 2010 three out of four people had a home computer. It is
also observed that postgraduate qualification obtained the highest percentage of computer
ownership to about 75% in 2002 and rose slightly to almost 100% in 2010. Furthermore, bachelor’s
degree came in the second place and reached 70% in 2002 and inclined a little to about 90%.

In contrast, people who did not receive the high school diploma was the lowest proportion of the
computer ownership which only 15% in 2002 before it quadrupled in 2010. In addition, There was a
significant difference with the high school graduates, in 2002 the percentage of computer belonging
started in 40% and rose significantly to about 65% in the following eight years.

An analysis of the data by level of education shows that higher levels of education correspond to
higher levels of computer ownership in both of those years. In 2002, only around 15% of those who
did not finish high school had a computer, but this figure had tripled by 2010. There were also
considerable increases, of approximately 30 percentage points, for those with a high school diploma
or an unfinished college education (reaching 65% and 85% respectively in 2010). However, graduates
and postgraduates proved to have the greatest level of ownership in 2010, at 90% and 95%
respectively, 20 percentage points higher than in 2002.

The last decade has seen substantial growth in computer ownership in general, and across all
educational levels.
