Don't forget the actual cost of manufacturing. The building, the workers, the people working behind the scenes on finance or logistics, or manufacturing details...etc

Manufacturing takes a lot of people on a lot of different levels not only to get it up and running but to keep it running and that's expensive.

Tooling for manufacturing is also insanely expensive
