First, editorial work is not at all a "fixed cost". It depends on the author, the editor assigned to them, the size of the publisher involved, how many editors and associate editors are involved in a project, etc.
All of those factors (and a whole lot more) greatly affect how the publisher does business, which in turn affects pricing through every level of the pipeline. And that, in turn, most assuredly influences how the market moves as a whole, especially when it is multiplied hundreds of times by the number of titles published domestically each month alone.
