For a publishing house, there is usually an advance payment of the royalties,
which are usually about the 7% of the retail price, for the first 500 copies. To give an example:The retail price of a book is 100 euros. Royalties are 7 euros for each book.
The advance payment is 3500 euros.
 
Of course, the advance payment is something to be bargained sometimes.
 
Pictures or artistic work have extra cost for the rights.
 
Translation, in addition, is the most expensive part.
 
I hope this information be helpful.

P.S.: I want to thank all the members who answered to my question as regards Thayer.
