The expected 60 million dollar price tag comes from some papers I was reading that estimated the C series at 63 million, the Boeing 737 at about 75 million and the Airbus a320 at about 80 million per copy.

And your right, if the estimated cost is 63 million and Bombardier bid at 20 then the 220% tariff makes sense.
