There are some real inconsistencies with what the committee claims and what Apple claims in the testimony they released today. In fact Apple said they comply with not only the laws, but also the "spirit of the laws"
>Apple complies fully with both the laws and spirit of the laws. And Apple pays all its required taxes, both in this country and abroad.
>Apple wants to make clear to the Subcommittee that the Company does not use its Irish subsidiaries or any other entities to engage in the following tax practices that were the focus of the Subcommittee’s September 20, 2012 hearing, entitled Offshore Profit Shifting and the US Tax Code. Specifically, Apple does not move its intellectual property into offshore tax havens and use it to sell products back into the US to avoid US tax, nor does it use revolving loans from CFCs to fund its domestic operations. Apple does not hold money on a Caribbean island, does not have a bank account in the Cayman Islands, and does not move any taxable revenue from sales to US customers to other jurisdictions in order to avoid US taxation.
