Re: Apple Iphone 5 cost 199 to make! Sells for 849! - September 22nd 2012, 10:47 PM

Really though, you aren't even accounting for the assembly, marketing, transportation, handling, environmental fees, research and development costs, profit margin, store mark-up, factory maintenance, etc.

The headphones and charger costs aren't even included in that $200, and I'd estimate both together are a $50-$100 value.

We're making assumptions based on a wild guess by two people. The link itself says "take this with a grain of salt."
