Their profit? Yes. They are required to account for that by law.
But they don't break that down by revenue stream in a way that would be useful. This is by design: Apple doesn't want people sniffing around and wondering what things would be like in a world where Apple had to sell their technology piecemeal. It'd be like demanding to know how much profit Apple made from selling macOS vs. Macintosh computers. Everything's one giant bundle, why calculate things separately? Are you trying to force us to unbundle shit?

- greedo 3y agoYou can be assured that Apple internally knows the margins on everything they make as well as Services. I think that there's several reasons they don't disclose discrete sales figures and profit margins. This would give competitors a good idea of where to attack Apple.
