Predicted band5.5The provided table gives data on the sales of a small restaurant for the second week of October month. As is observed from the given presentation, the sales volume of dinner is higher than the lunch sales volume throughout the whole week except Sunday and people spend more money for lunch and dinner to the restaurant on Friday. As is presented in the comparison table, the sale amount of the restaurant in lunch time is around $ 2300 to $ 2600 from Monday to Friday. Their sales volume of dinner for the same days of the week is between $3400 and $4400. But on Saturday and Sunday, a different trend is observed when the sales volume drops compared to other days of the week and this is possibly because of the days off. On Sunday the sales volume of lunch decreases to $ 1,550 and dinner to $ 2,450 which are the least amounts they sale in the week. Interestingly the dinner sales volume on Sunday night drops to only $ 2045 which is almost 2 times less than the amount they sell on Friday night. In summary, the restaurant sales more for dinner than the lunch and people tend to eat less in restaurants on Saturday and Sunday.

On Monday, the restaurant sells lunch for 2400 dollars and the sale reaches the peak of 2595 on Wednesday. The sale then falls down a bit on Thursday and recover back to 2500 level on Friday. For dinner sales in this restaurant, the sale is much higher the whole week compared to the lunch sale. Nevertheless, comparing weekdays and weekend sales, the pattern is similar as it is for lunch sales. If we look at weekday sales trend, it is obvious that the sales are quite erratic. On Monday, the restaurant makes a sale of 3623 dollars from dinner and on Tuesday it goes up a bit but on Wednesday. It touches the lowest level of the weekday at 3445 dollars then it recovers and reaches a peak of 4350 dollars on Friday.
