No, you still have it wrong.

There is a one-time charge of $500 for your ASN and $1250 for your /48.
After that, it is just $100/year, period.

The ISP costs do not have to be significantly more than what you already
pay for commodity access. My ISP costs total roughly $140/month, but, for
that I am subscribing to 50Mbps down and 7Mbps up and usually get
about 70Mbps down and close to 10Mbps up as well as a slower DSL
circuit for backup.

Yes, it's more than $20/month, but, decent business class service
from one provider is going to be around $60/month or more. So, if you
double that ($120), you're not far off from what I'm paying and for the
small incremental cost, I'm getting quite a bit more.
