If Boeing sells an airliner for 100 million dollars and it"s taxes are 35% on the sale the cost is now 135 million dollars.

The corporate income tax is levied on profits, not on sales.

Let's say the pre-tax profit on that $100 million airliner was 10% -- $10 million. The associated corporate income tax would then be $3.5 million (not $35 million).

You are correct. However our tax rate on corporation profits are about 35%. Boeing does not pay it, we do.

When I used the figure of 100 million it should have been addressed as profit not sale price.

However our insane taxes on corporations put our companies at a great disadvantage in international marketing.
