The analytical agency iSuppli succeeded in the determination of prime cost of apple products by their complete dismantling and studying the component base. Experts assert that the prime cost of low-end model iPhone 4 for the producer is equal to $187, if we do not consider the cost of software and labor workers, expenditures for advertisement and delivery, or license deductions. In case with the low-end version iPad, in the opinion of iSuppli, it is possible to speak about the prime cost of production at $260 level.
During the last week Apple director noted that analysts did not reveal the real prime cost of iPhone 4 productions : This device in production is much more expensive. Apple representatives issue a call not to believe in the published by independent expert data about the prime production cost. The average apple profit rate for the second quarter composed 39,1%. Accordingly, the potential of reduction in the retail prices of popular product apple is not so great. Related Products :
