How are profits and cost savings calculated in this table?

Is there enough given data to calculate these two?

Here is what I do know:

ROI = (cum profits - cum cost)/cum cost
Sales = (Market Size * Market Share)
Change in profits = (new profit - old profit + cost savings)
Cum. Change in profits = addition of profits from each year
Market share = given
Cum. Cost = given

(Next, need to work out an alternate version when the market size grows only $20M/year from 2004 - some linear interpolation required.)

I am not sure how these 2 values are calculated, any help in the right direction is appreciated.

Thank You.

EDIT:
Looks like difference of new and old profit is same to difference between cost savings and change in profits...
