Question
Limiting Chinese imports in the U.S. could significantly impact Apple's business strategy. As Apple is heavily dependent on low-cost manufacturing in China, any restrictions on Chinese imports could increase manufacturing costs for Apple. This could lead to higher prices for Apple products in the U.S., potentially affecting sales and profits. Additionally, Apple might need to rethink its supply chain and consider other locations for manufacturing to mitigate the risk. However, this could also lead to increased costs and logistical challenges.
This question was asked on:
Apple is a leading American technology company that has collected a large amount of cash. As of June 30, 2015, the company had $34.7 billion in the bank. This means higher corporate taxation in the United States, where income inequality has become a major political issue. Apple is heavily dependent on low-cost manufacturing in China. The risk here is that social and political unrest in China may negatively affect manufacturing or increase manufacturing costs for Apple. There has also been a discussion about limiting Chinese imports in the U.S. in an effort to support native manufacturing.
