They have to pay for all of that PLUS the royalties on the content to the author of the book.

The fact is that audio books are an extremely small market, so all of those costs are spread out over a much smaller volume. I paid around $50 for Atlas Shrugged, Animal Farm, and 1984 on CD for my drive down to Florida...
