答案 The Average Family Income and Expenses in the U.S. The table reveals the average family income and expenses in the United States in 1980 and 1985. In 1980, the average family income was distributed in the following ways: 18% was spent on food, 25% was spent on housing, which accounted for most of the family expenditure. 10% on medical expenses, 7% on entertainment and 5% went to savings in the bank. The remaining 35% was channeled to other family expenses. In 1985, the picture was slightly different. With the total family income increased to $ 16,000 per year, the percentages of income spent on food, housing and medical care also took an upward turn, which went up to 22%, 32%, and 12% respectively. The percentage of family income spent on entertainment and savings remained the same, while the percentage of money put to other uses dropped from 35% to 23%. It can be concluded from the above table that when people have higher income they tend to spend more on food, housing and medical care and thus increase the standard of their lives.
