Over time the overhead will get paid off, as long as people continue to buy or borrow the book. ebooks are 100% profit, the publisher can't sell at a loss.
There is no need to factor in per-book overhead, so the wisest course of action is to simply go for sheer revenue.


Maybe they need to fix the pbook business.
POD might help them with that. Stop paying so much money to ship paper from point A to B.
