Answer to Question 1

Answer to Question 2

2015 2014
Cost of goods sold percentage 72.6 68.8
Gross profit margin 27.4 31.2
G&A/Net sales 25.0 26.1
Operating profit margin 2.4 5.1
Effective tax rate 40.0 30.0
Net profit margin 1.0 3.1

The COGS percentage has increased causing gross profit margin to decline. Either prices of the products have decreased or cost of goods sold has increased and management has been unable to pass on the cost in the form of higher selling prices. General and administrative expenses havebeen cut, but not enough to mitigate the change in gross profit margin.This has resulted in a declining operating profit margin. The dollar amount of interest expense remained unchanged. Despite declining profits, BobKat's effective tax rate has increased 10 and caused further decline in the net profit margin.
