There’s a flaw in your logic. The value of software doesn’t derive from how much you spend on developers. It’s a function of what customers are willing to pay for the service/product.
If there is no market fit, 100 man-years is worth $0.
On the other hand, if 10K customers are willing to pay $15/month for a tool that took 30 man-months to build you have a handy $150K/month revenue stream.

But also they probably want to use this app on their phone and other devices. So the either have to make it a web app, become a server admin and pay for hosting. Or they have to buy a Mac and pay for the developer program and hope they pass App Store review so they don’t have to reinstall every days.
