The chart below shows the average cost of a monthly contract for four different mobiles in a European country from January to September 2002,measure in euro
The graph shows how much money (in
euros
) four different mobile phone operators charged on average each month from January to September of 2002.
As can be observed, Domo
dominated in terms of pricing, although
Sim TX had the fastest-growing service charge. While
Alpha's service cost generally stabilized, Lex marginally increased the fee.
With monthly contracts ranging from 15 to 25 euros
, Domo
had the most expensive options; July had the highest demand. But for the first six months, Sim TX was the company that offered the least expensive service, charging roughly 5 euros
. It wasn't until July that it matched Alpha at 10 euros
, and in September it surpassed Domo
, the top firm, at 25 euros
—a five-fold rise over its starting charge.
Lex increased its prices over time, just like Domo
and Sim TX, but it did so at a far slower rate (7 euros
) than the other competitors. On the other hand
, Alpha's monthly cost remained very consistent, with the exception of a minor increase of 4 euros
in May and June. Following that, the sum returned to its typical level of approximately 10 euros
