ANSWER
The two pie charts elucidate the proportion of money expended by Americans on seven different categories in 1986 and 1996.
The expenditure on car, restaurant, computer and books increased in the given period whereas, on rest of the categories it decreased.
The greater difference in spending was seen in two categories namely, food and cars. On former, expenditure dipped from 44% to 14% between 1986 and 1996. While, money spent on latter hiked from 23% to 45%. Purchase of computers surged dramatically as in 1986 only a proportion of money was spent on it but this became ten percent in second given year.
Americans spent almost same proportion of money on petrol and furniture in 1986, nearly ten percent. In 1996, percentage of money spent on both was same ,that is, eight. Liking for restaurant food increased as expenditure doubled in two years. Likewise this, inclination towards book hiked which is clear from the proportion which was six in 1986 and 14 in 1996.
