While the content does not provide a specific real-world example of a company using a thermometer chart, it's common for many businesses to use such charts to visualize their performance. For instance, a company might use a thermometer chart to track its annual sales performance against its targets. The chart would show the target as the full thermometer and the actual sales as the filled portion. This provides a clear, visual representation of how close the company is to meeting its sales targets. However, without specific examples in the content, it's difficult to provide a more detailed answer.

Question was asked on:

The thermometer charts in this spreadsheet template function similarly to the bullet charts, where actual revenue and target revenue can be compared to find the percent completed, and how much the actual revenue is over or under by, with customizable thresholds to highlight bad, to average, to target performance.
