1. What are the benefits to apple of outsourcing the assembly of the iPhone to
foreign countries, and particularly china? Explain with example.
2. What are the potential cost and risk to Apple? What are their costs of
continuing business?
3. In this whole scenario who are the potential losers? Explain with
justification.
Here the potential losers are the people of the United States.
Apple is gaining a lot by giving work contracts to the Chinese factories due to lower
production cost. And the Chinese factories are also happy with it as they are getting works.
But the people of the U.S. are losing jobs to the Chinese people. Despite Apple’s claim that it
supports more than 250,000 jobs in the United States, it also support almost 700,000
additional jobs outside of the U.S. - jobs that possibly could be filled by workers in the
United States.
This is why people of the U.S. are the potential losers here.
