In the first quarter of the 2014 sales year, car sales skyrocketed. Our first quarter sales accounted for 58% of our overall sales for the year. During the second quarter, however, we saw sales plummet. Our second quarter sales accounted for a mere 20% of our overall sales for the year. The third and fourth quarter were also low, each accounting for approximately 6% of our annual revenue, respectively.

Which was easier for you to understand/comprehend? Which was more helpful for you? Why?
In this scenario, highlighting sales and revenue, what is the strength of using a pie chart or graph to represent data?
In this scenario, what is the strength of using text to present information?
How does audience affect format? For example, if you were a car salesman and you had to present sales data to your boss, would you use a pie chart or text? Why ?
