Financial Surprises

Seen any shrinking profits recently? Has your profit, as a percentage of sales, dropped from 10% to 9% to 8% to 7%? Is it as low as 5%? Are you showing a profit, but it's hard to pay your bills? Doesn't seem to make sense, does it? Have you looked back to try to explain these types of changes and been unsuccessful? Sometimes the causes are as big as day and yet hidden in the darkness.
