You perhaps aren't trying to be deceptive by misusing the word "markup," but citation please for /any/ "markup the RPi guys initially paid to Broadcom"

Huh. If I knew what their markup was, I would not have asked pclmulqdq for more information about what their markup was. Or what their markup wasn't, if pclmulqdq is right and Broadcom gave them the chips at a "significant loss."

Regardless, any basis of your "low markup" would suffice to show markup was non-zero.

...though given this is HN I would have to concede low could be zero! :)
