Here's what I came up with.
FERRARI 2005 Profit Estimate
Estimated 1,644 cars to be sold in 2005 times $228,886.00 USD average cost of each vehicle equals $376,288,584.00 USD.
Yes, you read that right--
three hundred and seventy six million, two hundred and eighty eight thousand, five hundred and eighty four united states dollars.
That amount does not deduct employee payroll, marketing, engineering, metal, machinery, motorsports, or the light bill, but I think it should cover it.
But let's figure that all in for fun.
Let's say an average employee makes $50.00 USD per hour. Times 40 hours per week = $2,000.00 USD. Times 48 working weeks for the year = $96,000.00 USD. Times about 200 employees = $19,200,000.00 USD.
Now let's say all seven of the things above cost $19,200,000.00 USD each annually. Yes, even the light bill. Times 7 = $134,400,000.00 USD.
Subtract that from their sales from the beginning of this article
$376,288,584.00 USD
-$134,400,000.00 USD
---------------------
$241,888,584.00 USD is what they have left over.
Yep, I think they know what they are doing.
