$30 or $40 to the cost of making the device,

Basic math, an iphone is $800 retail. So a 40 dollar increase as a percent is $40/$800 = 5%. I nailed it!

NOT SO FAST. That one assumes that NOT ALL COMPONENTS ARE MADE HERE. That price assumes that most components were sourced GLOBALLY.

But that is not what you want to argue, you want EVERYTHING, components and all, MADE HERE with no foreign input.

THAT, according to a Market research would push the cost up by about $600.
