<<The whole concept of the cost of a chipset as part of the royalty is dumb ["Qualcomm charges a royalty in the range of $13 to $15 per CDMA chip, it's much less at around $3 in countries such as China and Korea, the source added." ]>>

If the royalty rate is 15 Dollars at a rate of 7 percent the "chip" itself must be going for 214 Dollars.
