Any hope that Apple will be again The reserve was released from the customs tariff, as President Donald Trump announced a mutual tariff plan. As a result, the company will have to decide between raising the price of iPhone or suffering from loss.

Trump has already imposed a 10 percent tariff on products imported from China, a country where more than 85 percent of iPhone devices are manufactured. Recently, Trump announced last week a plan for mutual definitions on countries that imposed fees on American exports. This may affect many developing countries, including India, where 15 percent of iPhone devices are made.

If a tariff of 10 percent is imposed, Apple will have to increase the price of iPhone and iPad and other products by 9 percent to neutralize the impact of the new tax, According to Bank of America analyst and Emsey Mohan.

This is “curse if you do, curse if not”, with a sign warning that profits can be affected regardless of how Apple responds.

If the prices are kept as it is, there is expected to be a 26 cents loss per share per share, or 3.1 percent in the evaluation year 2026. A small increase in prices, such as 3 % height, still amounts to a level of 2.4 percent loss. , As high prices have the ability to reduce sales by 5 percent. Of course, the strike can be smaller if sales are not affected at all if the price increases.

Taking into consideration all of this, Mohan estimates that the price increases by 9 percent would compensate for the financial burden of tariffs, including any potential decrease in demand.

The Revenge tariff for Trump differs in that it targets the commercial barriers adopted by the commercial partners in America. This means that the administration does not only follow countries that have a sour relationship. Instead, he wants to settle the stadium. If Apple hopes to escape the definitions of China by transferring more production to India, then there is nothing to do so now.
