No idea. I don't work at Boeing. Why don't you ask them? Or the government? This is the sort of data you could get from an FOIA request.

Why don't you ask Boeing why exactly they need to charge $50k per trash can, before justifying them with an imaginary explanation of how their economy works?

It's an outrageous amount of money to charge... Until it's your time, effort, and mortgage payments on the line to get the work done.
