Fines for this stuff need to work like courtroom penalty of destroying records: assume the records were the worst-possible evidence.
Let's assume most-possible profit, make the fine 10x that.
Then whatever BS "liar figuring" is done, it'll still be a massive fine. One that can't be escaped via bankruptcy.
