I remember my economics teacher giving us a similar example. He said
that the cost to build a brand new $20,000 car from parts would cost 10 times
the price of the car, according to him that would mean $200,000. He didn't
say what kind of car it was though (i.e.... Ford or Chevy). Makes you think
about the mark up for replacement parts that dealerships get to charge to
customers.
