Apple Inc is moving its manufacturing site from China due to a trade war that exists between China and the United States. Elaborate on four (4) factors that affect the location decisions made by Apple Inc.


Aplple Inc as a high-end technology company was doing really well in the high-end market but however, but they choose to move out from China will really bring a high impact to themself.

苹果公司作为一家高端科技公司,在高端市场的表现确实不错,但是,他们选择从中国撤离,真的会给自己带来很大的冲击



Firstly, China is one of the biggest markets in the world, and it also accounts for one of the bigger parts of the sales of Apple products. While they move out of China, it will totally affect the sales of the applied product in the China market. Even more, apple inc will lose its customer loyalty in China because it is harder to access apple products. So to avoid these problems, Apple Inc should consider the population of the next location and choose the location which has a higher population.

首先,中国是全球最大的市场之一,也是苹果产品销量的较大份额之一。当他们搬出中国时,将完全影响应用产品在中国市场的销售。更重要的是,苹果公司将失去其在中国的客户忠诚度,因为苹果产品更难获得。所以为了避免这些问题,苹果公司应该考虑下一个地点的人口,选择人口较多的地点。



Second, China is also one of the countries that has the lowest labor cost compared with other countries because of its population. While the apple Inc stays in China, it will have the lower cost advantages, but however, while Apple Inc is moved out from china, it will lose these advantages, and it will cause a higher cost to the apple company and may also bring effect to the price of the product. So while Apple Inc wants to make a decision for another location, it should consider the higher buying power of the location because the price of the Apple product is not likely to be bought by the lower class people.

其次,由于人口众多,中国也是与其他国家相比劳动力成本最低的国家之一。苹果公司留在中国的时候,会有较低的成本优势,但是,苹果公司从中国搬出去的时候,就会失去这些优势,给苹果公司带来更高的成本,也可能带来影响到产品的价格。因此,当苹果公司想在另一个地点做出决定时,它应该考虑到该地点的购买力较高,因为苹果产品的价格不太可能被较低阶层的人购买。



Third, while moving out from China, apply also will lose some of its customers from China because China people are harder to access the applied product after this change. So that Apple Inc should consider where the location is having a higher reputation and stick with the apple product so that apple inc can save up the cost to open another cost for the apple product while moving into the new location.

第三,apply在离开中国的同时,也会失去一些来自中国的客户,因为这次改变后,中国人更难接触到apply的产品。因此,Apple Inc 应该考虑该地点在哪里具有较高的声誉并坚持使用 Apple 产品,以便 Apple Inc 可以在搬到新地点的同时节省为 Apple 产品开设另一项成本的成本。



Fourth, other than the lower labor cost, apply inc will also lose the current tax rate that is already used for a long time and fit with the apple's financials but while apple moves to a new location, it would need to accept a new tax rate. So Apple Inc needs to consider the tax rate while choosing a new location, try to decrease the tax rate, and decrease the impact on the cost and price of the production.

第四,除了较低的人工成本外,apply inc 也会失去目前已经使用了很长时间并且符合苹果财务状况的税率,但是当苹果搬到新的地点时,它需要接受新的税率.所以苹果公司在选择新地点时需要考虑税率,尽量降低税率,减少对生产成本和价格的影响。
