IPod nano: Apple is working at a very high profit margin

We are probably not saying much news when we say that Apple is selling its products at a very high profit margin.

Market research firm iSuppli calculates that Apple can estimate a profit of around $ 100 for each iPod sold as a revamped iPod nano player: the 4GB version cost $ 58,85 and the 8GB version $ 82,85. while the prices of the handsets are $ 149 and $ 199, respectively.

Nothing proves the declining production costs better than the fact that the new model is about $ 13 cheaper to roll off the production line than the previous-generation nano, and $ 2005 cheaper than the one introduced in September 31.

Regarding the above figures, it should be noted that these are just so-called hardware costs, so expenditures such as software development, packaging and distribution are not included.
