How fast is 12th Gen Intel Core?

I assume the M1/M2 performance versions are much more expensive (very large L1/L2 caches, see Ryzen vs Ryzen X3D performance, and that only increases cheap L3 cache) than AMD processors. Apple can afford this I assume with high end laptop and their margins from owning the supply chain. Apple has the benefit of not telling and you can't buy an M1 (?). I would be interested about production costs of Ryzen vs. M1/M2 processors, any sources?

Also because I assume ARM needs less transistors compared to x86 so they can use more die area for caches.

If you look at die shots of any new chip, x86 or ARM, the actual CPU cores are taking up a smaller and smaller percentage of the die.
