Cafe Earnings - band 9

The graph illustrates how much three cafés (Pete’s Café, Central Coffee Shop and Café Luna) earned per month between January and June.

Overall, it can be seen that both Pete’s Café and Café Luna increased their monthly earnings over the period. In comparison, after an initial peak, Central Coffee Shop’s earnings had decreased dramatically by June.

During January to March, Pete’s Café and Café Luna maintained relatively steady monthly earnings of around €1500 and €2000 respectively. On the other hand, Central Coffee Shop’s earnings shot up from €2500 in January to €3500 in February, after which they slowed to €2000 in March.

From March onwards, Pete’s Café began to increase its takings steadily and had more than doubled its profits by June, overtaking both the other cafés in April and finishing the graph with the highest figures (€3500). The earnings for Café Luna continued to increase gradually, finishing with slightly more than in January. By April, Central Coffee Shop’s earnings had continued to decline and were less than both the other cafés at just €1500 per month, a rate which remained steady until June.

It would appear that Central Coffee Shop’s initial popularity began to decline from February onwards and this had a beneficial effect on the figures for the other two cafés, particularly Pete’s.
