Do their “costs” include overpriced parts destined to move money offshore? For example in the film industry, it is common to promise actors a share of benefits, then create a subsidiary for the movie, charge it insane amounts for the producing company’s services (brand, distribution), so that the movie may be a loss even if its revenue is 3 times the production costs. Of course the head company deserves to be paid, but discussing how much a service or a part is worth, beyond its marginal manufacturing price, is the whole question.
