It’s basically two adjacent pie charts. I don’t hate these, but I agree they are a bit confusing because it implies a relationship between sections in the left and right that are across from each other. They’re useful to get a sense of proportion in each categorization.
I think the intent of the big green bar in the middle is to signify that all the revenue streams combine to form this single total revenue, then the various cost centers chip away at it until you get the singular green revenue total in the bottom left.
I guess it’s how our brains are wired like another poster said, because I definitely didn’t pick up an implied relationship between the revenue and costs here.
This style of chart is fucking awful. Can it obfuscate information in any worse way?
I find this easy to read. There are quite a few info graphics where that is not the case though. I think it’s how your brain is wired.
Same, money go in = green, money go out = red
I found it easy to read personally. Not sure I’m a fan of it, but everything seems laid out half decently.

Feel free to post a better one!
I, too, hate this style of chart.
