I am not missing the point. It's dishonest to mark up a part to that degree. They do it because most people don't know what the part costs and it looks a lot better on the bill than that extra hundred bucks would look if they added it to labor or overhead where it belongs. I mark up materials 10 to 15 percent to account for my time but I can't hide my costs because anyone can go to home Depot and see what a 2x4 costs. I price my labor honestly where people can see it and make no excuses about it. So you'd charge $15 for the part...and $2.25 (15%) for labor?? I'm sure you'd charge more than $17.25 to come out to someone's house and replace a capacitor. It'd take you atleast an hour to go out...not counting the fuel cost as well. The only way I'd see a $17.25 charge for that job is on the hope of something larger. You may be an individual contractor...but if your running a larger business... you must take into account those other costs. If not, I don't see how'd you'd stay in business.
