I was reading an article resently about how much profit is made on the things we buy.
Basicaly it said the materials cost of say an electronic item is around 10% of what we pay .
The shop that sells make after tax around 30% the rest going to the manufacturer and delivery etc.
In Britian the price will cover returns and garentees.
I dont know about videos but with magazines you must remmember that comercial companys make money out of advertising as well as sales.
Even so the society must make a profit on the sale of literature at least in western lands.
As to the feeding and accomadation of bethelites etc I think there are seperate donations made to cover these costs.
I tend to go by the 10% rule so if they suggest an offer price of $10 for the video it probably cost $1 dollar to make.
