Milestone One: Apple



Product Introduction/Overview

The company I would like to research will be Apple and the product will be about their

MacBook line. Since the early 2000s, Apple is one of the most profitable and most recognized

companies in the world. You can't watch TV without seeing Apple on News Channels, TV

Shows, Commercials, or even home use. I would use Marginal Analysis in the Apple

Company to find age demographics of sales, annual sales of products, and production cost to

buyer's price. Also, keep an eye on different companies to provide a better product to keep the

, consumer satisfied and returning to the company. "Apple benefited from remote work and

learning trends, reporting sales in its iPad and Mac segments of $6.58 billion and $7.08 billion,

which beat expectations of $4.88 billion and $6.06 billion." (Nellis, S. 2020)

reputation in the corporate and social world, demand changes will hardly be noticed even when

prices are raised. Are Apple products sensitive to price changes? I would say no, because the

demand for Apple products is exceptionally strong, which makes them more price inelastic than

elastic.” (“The Gadget Lover”, 2020) Time would be another elasticity of supply and demand

dealing with production of raw materials, assembly of product, labor production time, and even

release dates for marketing product when shipped and promoted my company.


B. Non-Price Factors of Demand


Two Major non-priced factors of demand, like future expectations and available income

of customers at product release, are biased on the customer’s desires for the product. The public

expectations of the product will be biased on advertising the new features, certain discounts the

MacBook will provide different than their rivals, and brand loyalty. A costumer’s finance will

also determine if it reasonable to purchase the laptop. With different versions provided the public

could reserve a newer laptop or try to reserve an older model version. “The upstream supply
