After another successful quarter, Apple is worth more than $400 billion, which is about $6,622,516 per employee.

If it was to pay a corporate tax on its massive cash reserves of $97.7 billion, that money could buy an iPad for every person in Canada and Greece. However, 2/3 of that reserve is stored offshore. Moreover, Apple’s cash reserve is enough to pay off the total public debt of 8 EU countries, including Slovakia, Luxembourg, Bulgaria, Lithuania, Latvia, Cyprus, Estonia and Malta.

In the last three months, Apple brought in 4x more profit than Walmart, the world’s largest retailer… And here’s how it all comes together in an infographic prepared by MBAonline.com.

    No one is twisting your arm to buy any apple products.  Apple has never asked for a bailout, unlike the banks, insurance companies, big oil and other big business.  Also, a product is NOT overpriced if it provides perceived value to the buyer greater than the price of the product…

    if people buy those products they are not over priced, buyers are over sold and under informed. fads and herd behaviour allows this to happen, just as with women fashion
