Adjusted Dollar Profit ?The manufacturers often run promotions with dealers where they get incentive cash on certain models. When this happens, we often see negative front end grosses and zero back end profit. We know that profit was made but it is too complicated to add to the reports. Since we do not know how much they made, this figure removes the total amount of front end losses and pars it to zero. In our opinion, this figure is a more accurate one.

Adjusted Return ?This displays the percentage of profit from the mailings, after the adjusted amount is applied.
