The $62,000 per car is very misleading as is the 15% profit margin.
A least one of those figures has to be plain wrong. A gross margin of $62,000 / car as 15% of the factory gate price would suggest an average ex-factory price of over $400,000, which is way too high even for Ferrari.
It is probably profits (before taxes) for each car. I posted a similar calc a few months ago since it was on the press... two figures you need: profits for 2015 and cars delivered/sold in 2015.
I should add, now that Ferrari is a public company all info will be posted and given that it is a simple business it will be easier to calculate the performance. Also, we should remember that these profits are AFTER the costs of the F1 team!
