What does cost iPhone 5 to make?
The Apple iPhone 5 will cost $ 207 to make. At least that’s what the researchers IHS iSupplito come, after the iPhone 5 piece by piece on estimated value.
In September TechInsights estimated that the iPhone 5 for $ 167.50 on parts contains. The 16GB iPhone 5 at IHS called a bill of materials (BOM) that are about $ 30 higher. The cost components together $ 197, about $ 9 more than the iPhone 4S. Together with assembly brings the total to $ 207.
The difference between the iPhone 5 selling price and the cost of the parts flow naturally not directly as margin in the pockets of Apple. Many factors are in the $ 207 not included. Consider the cost of royalties, software and logistics.
