What does an aircraft cost has the answer it depends. The following is a
collection of figures and show plenty of variation. Things like whether
spare parts are included, if a company is making more than one product how
things like head office costs are allocated, whether depreciation of the
building etc. is included.

In April 1938 the British calculated the total cost of ownership of a naval
aircraft, that is purchase, running and modernisation cost, as 11,500 pounds
per year, which meant it was about 6 aircraft to the destroyer.

Australian Archives MP450/1 109 Detailed break down of Beaufort costs, per
aircraft in Australian pounds.
Tooling 1,895, preliminary expenses 532, Improvements and extensions to
properties 893 (Railways 554, Holden 186, other contractors 10, stores,
flight field and plants 143), Plant, machinery and equipment 1,136, office
furniture 168, which gives a total of 4,623 of establishment costs per
aircraft.

Newport Workshop 1,477 (Labor 622, overhead 693, sub contract 162), Chullora
Workshop 2,019 (Labor 734, overhead 1,155, sub contract 130), Islington
Workshop 1,342 (Labor 516, overhead 745, sub contract 81),

Assembly Workshops Mascot/Fishermans Bend 2,510 (Labor 1,038, overhead
1,472), Holden production cost per aircraft set 2,321, Richards Industries
production cost per aircraft set 292, freight 350, central office overhead
3,224, Materials (including sub contractors' costs other than Holden or
Richards Industries) Holden 821 (746 plus 75 for ten percent allowance),
Richards Industries 44 (40 plus 4 for ten percent allowance), Newport (795
plus 79 for ten percent allowance), Chullora (2,780 plus 278 for ten percent
allowance), Islington 1,407 (1,279 plus 128 for ten percent allowance),
Assembly (4,446 plus 445 for ten percent allowance). Appendix A equipment
including gun turret 2,627 (Which gives the airframe cost as 27,257),
Engines and Propellers (Overseas costs, Wasp engines and Curtiss propellers)
12,546 (Which gives total aircraft cost of 39,803). So 39,803 plus 4,623
gives total costs per completed aircraft as 44,426 pounds. The above
excluding license fees.

Firstly some US data. Ford Willow run used more tooling and so less man
hours but costs about the same, for a variety of reasons including the
frequent design changes.

As one would expect, someone has to pay for the new factories, tooling,
materials etc. Willow Run for example was a brand new very large

the factory and sold it to the government then leased it back for the
duration of the war. Post war they simply ceased leasing it.
