no room for price cutting?

I said no such thing.

In 1990, a staggering 36 percent of sales revenue went into [marketing and administration]

Administration is a very broad category, and not something that is going to go down drastically under a different system. As for marketing, things like free samples are counted as marketing costs, but they are hardly negative or even useless.

To put it another way "marketing and administration" does not equal waste.
