  1. I miss when this sub had good figures not easily made stuff like this. Don’t get me wrong I like Sankey though.

  2. Isnt it surprising that Apple earns such a high share of income from Iphones? Does the people who own Iphones not also have Macbooks? Surprised me.

  3. 78% increase in tax payments, interesting. This is probably mostly because the European Commission forced Apple to pay over €10B to Ireland

  4. $29.7B tax on a $123.2B operating profit, that’s 24 % tax rate. Are you sure they pay that much ?

  5. Every time I see Apple’s income I think about how each of their 5 main business units (the 4 product groups + Services) would be a Fortune 500 company on its own.

  6. Damn we really could force apple to pay more taxes. Then potentially give them a tax break on R&D to incentivise technology instead of funding shareholders

  7. ~21% of that “Services” revenue is just from Google’s yearly $20B to keep it as the default search engine in Safari
