I think you make the standard mistake of an engineer.
You shouldn't start from the raw parts costs and calculate
the endprise according to that. But rather start from what
the customers are willing to pay, substract H to F and C,
what is left has to cover D, B and A.
If it doesn't cover what you estimate, then we have a problem.
If it does cover and we have some money left, that's our profit.
This way you also have a better idea whether OGD1 will be
economicaly a success or not.
