Explanation / Answer

Let us first look at the relation of sales and profit.

From 2013 to 2017 sales is constantly declining however profits does not follow the same pattern. Profits have a rollercoaster ride in this 5 years span with and at the end of 2017 it is marginally low then the levels of 2013, however, sales have seen a sharp decline of 18% in these 5 years. Which means the company is earning profits from somewhere else and not from the revenue generated from sales.

COGS and sales.

Although sales have seen a decline of about 18% in last 5 years, Cost of producing also seen a very steep downturn of about 29% in last 5 years, which means the company is able to cut down on the cost and hence increase the profit margin.
