Cost breakdown
Eighty-four pounds, split seven ways, including our margin
Cost transparency is usually partial and stops short of the seller's own margin. Ours is eleven pounds and it is in the table like everything else.
Materials and making
Forty-one pounds, of which twenty-six is the workshop's labour. That is the largest single line and it should be.
Getting it to you
Nine pounds in freight, packing, and the returns we expect. Returns are a real cost and pretending otherwise distorts everything else.
What we keep
Eleven pounds before tax and overhead. After both, roughly four. That is the number people assume is much larger.
