It costs between $2000 and $4000 to print a book. It costs about the same to warehouse and distribute a typical hardcover.
It costs maybe $100,000 to market a book. Often much more.
Printing, distribution, and royalties are a small part of costs in the publishing industry. Marketing and amortized overhead are a large part of the costs.
