That has to be before taxes are added in to their cost. As a former station owner that would be a HUGE margin. When they give the station owners their cost they don't add in local and federal taxes. If she were to look at just the whosale cost it more than likely would not include taxes. Average margins are 6-10 cents before credit card fees.
