    In P&L Data I find neither "purchasing" nor "production expenses", which are COGS
    Do you have General journal? it may help to track

    convert P&L to a table
    apply filter to account code.
    there only appears to be two income elements (sale & bank interest)
    remove these from the total and should give outgoings (cost)

    P&L construction:
    A- Sales (+) sell to customer
    COGS (-) purchasing/ or production cost
    B- Gross Margin(GM) (+)
    C- Sale cost (-)
    D- Administrative cost (-)
    E- P&L(B-C-D)

    COGS is missing.

    @bebo it is a 'pretend' company - if it was a real company there would be cost codes appropriately within the P&L.
    Gross margin does not form any part of a P&L - profit is the resultant factor simply of Total Income-Total Cost.
    Businesses regularly go 'bust' when they get this wrong.
