That's not unusual for componsation for overhead and development costs. I'm honestly surprised its that expensive to make.
Thats probably 1500$ in apple parts. These parts most likely already include R&D costs as well as the additional increase for their brand.
That's not how that number works. It's the manufacturing cost before markup.
I believe he's implying that apple essentially is selling the parts from one division to another so their own markup is included in the visions total cost
