The bar chart illustrates how Gross Domestic Product (GDP) from the IT and Services Industries in the UK evolved over the period between 1992 and 2000. Overall, GDP coming from both the IT and Service industries went up steadily, although it is apparent that the contribution of the IT Industry did so at a greater rate in comparison to that of the service industry. Looking at the graph more closely, at the beginning of the period, in 1992, the IT industry component accounted for about 6%, however, it represented 15% by the year 2000. Therefore, that GDP item experienced a more than twofold jump in only an 8-year period. In comparison, the service industry, on its side, followed a pattern very similar to that of the IT sector, although at lower rate of increase. Specifically, this component started out representing only 4% of GDP in 1992, rising to finally reach just about 8% in 2000. As a result, it also displayed a twofold increase between 1992 and 2000., but at a lower degrees, in terms of percentages, compared to the IT Industry. Finally, there seems to have been a much greater gap between the two components of GDP from 1996 and onwards. While the difference between the IT and service industries fell by approximately 2% between 1992 and 1996, it gradually rose from nearly 4% in 1996 and went up around 7% by 2000.
Hope this helps! Some of that is just stylistic :)
