The Apple's profit margins are something of a legend. Never have accurate data on them, and we could only estimate them through a thorough study of the production chain.
However, it is precisely because of these magnificent and production assembly lines, which Apple has good margins on their products, even if they have a similar price to the competition. This afternoon have surfaced some documents of the legal battle between Samsung and Apple, which provide some light on this issue.
Contrary to what might seem to some, the apple company has almost double the profits for each iPhone, for every iPad. As I hear. Specifically, the news agency Reuters reports that the profit margin of one of its smartphones is between 49 and 58%. This data is collected for sales between April 2010 and March 2012.
In addition, between October 2010 and March 2012, the margins from the sale of iPad remained between 23 and 32%. All these data are for U.S. sales, but we assume that the world will be like.
These sales of tablet he reported more than 13 billion dollars of profits, adding iPhone, iPad 2 and iPad 3 . This means that Apple has to sell two tablets to earn the same as with a single iPhone.
This is somewhat surprising, given that the production of both devices, except for size, should be similar in terms of internal components. It is estimated that an iPhone costs 200 DOLLAR s manufacture, while the iPhone goes up to $ 316.
Apple Need another reason to go fast on the iPhone 5 ?
