***Need explanation to be written similar to the below example but for FORDS applicible information.

In the example above, sales decreased, gross profit increased, and the gross profit percentage increased. Therefore, sales are more profitable. We made 33 cents of gross profit on every dollar of sales this year, but only 14 cents of gross profit on every dollar of sales last year. Sales decreased, but sales are actually generating more profit overall, both as an absolute dollar value and as a percentage.

Your description may be different, but these are comments you might make for this posting and in your SEC 10-K paper and project.
