How Trump’s tariffs could impact Apple iPhone, Watch prices via YahooFinance
President Donald Trump met with Apple CEO Tim Cook on Sunday to discuss the potential impact tariffs would have on the U.S. tech giant. From the sound of it, Trump may be leaning toward providing Apple with some kind of exemption from the import tax, but there’s been no official word yet.
If Apple ends up passing the price of those tariffs onto consumers, the cost of products would increase by 10%. For something like the AirPods with wireless charging pod, which start at $199, the cost would increase by $19.90, bringing the price to $218.90. Story continuesThen there’s Apple’s MacBook laptops, which start at $1,099, and would reach $1,280.90 with the tariffs adding $109.90.
“However, there are scenarios where a 25% tax is discussed coming in December—in that case it is more likely that Apple passes on the taxes at least partially to consumers,” Zimmermann added. “On a Q/Q basis, Apple seems to have gained share with growth of 26% compared to a decline of 1% for the smartphone market,” Arcuri wrote in his note.
