The charts below show Australian dollars in Australia’s trade in three nations from 2004 to 2009 (in billion dollars)

Task

The three line graphs show the import and export levels of Australia in China, Japan and the US between 2004 and 2009. 

Overall, imports from China and the US were higher than exports but the opposite was true for Japanese market. 

In 2004, Japan was the largest export market of Australia, recording over 20 billion dollars, which was around 3 million dollars higher than the import volume. In contrast, Australia imported from the US more than exported to this nation, with the former figure doubling the latter one, at over 20 and 10 billion dollars. A similar pattern was repeated in China but its gap was smaller, at about 18 and over 12 billion dollars. 

After five years, export value to China rocketed to nearly 40 billion dollars and surpassed the import one (30 billion dollars), making this country the largest export market. While import values in the two other nations showed no significant changes, export number in Japan climbed to 40 billion dollars in 2008 before declining to around 25 billion dollars in 2009, compared to a fall of only about 2 billion dollars in the US.
