Answer:
sales are becoming less seasonal
Explanation:
besides constructing a pie chart, we can also answer this question by percentages (which is more exact).
2012:
total sales = $69,338
Q1 sales = $10,613 / $69,338 = 15.31%
Q2 sales = $6,424 / $69,338 = 9.26%
Q3 sales = $19,283 / $69,338 = 27.81%
Q4 sales = $33,019 / $69,338 = 47.68%
2013:
total sales = $142,238
Q1 sales = $30,342 / $142,238 = 21.33%
Q2 sales = $33,867 / $142,238 = 23.81%
Q3 sales = $34,246 / $142,238 = 24.08%
Q4 sales = $43,783 / $142,238 = 30.78%
During 2012, almost 50% of total sales happened during Q4, something similar to selling toys which are extremely seasonal due to Christmas.
During 2013, this changed since Q4 sales only represent 30% of total sales. Sales increased during Q1 and Q2, and slightly decreased in Q3. They are much more similar now, since sales are almost evenly spread throughout the year.
