Cost basis is the average price the funds paid for the coins they hold. It works like your own average buy price: when Solana's price is above it, the funds are ahead on paper, and when it is below, they are behind.
The Worth vs. paid tab divides Solana's price by that average. Above 1.0 the coins are worth more than the funds paid for them, and below 1.0 they are worth less. It is the same comparison as the two lines on the Buy price tab, as one number.
Coins in profit counts the Solana the funds hold that are worth more today than they cost, as a share of all of them. Funds in profit counts the funds whose coins, taken together, are worth more than they paid.
The price line on the Buy price tab is worked out from the two figures the chart already has, so it can sit a little off the price quoted elsewhere for the same day.
