Answer:

                                      2022         2021         Change     % Change

Net sales                    624,100     523,300      100,800         19.23%

Cost of goods sold    462,100     405,800       56,300         13.87%

Gross profit                162,000       117,500       44,500         37.87%

Operating exp.            72,300       44,300       28,000          63.21%
