True...true.
If that is indeed the methodology behind BMWNA's decided calculation, then you are correct. Actually, the more I think about it...I seem to recall that historically, the mark-up not being as high on the lower models...so maybe the higher Invoice number for the 535 is more accurate.

This would be only a $3700 mark-up ...which is lower than the mark-up on a low-end E.D. 3 Series Coupe from 10 years ago!
