What is Value on AKP SP - if product lives up to full potential ??, page-25

If AKP was to be bought out by a company like Apple, then it's an entirely different calculation of value for them, which doesn't necessarily revolve around how many chips they could sell to other companies, but what the value of the competitive advantage is worth to them.

If Apple conservatively makes $400 profit per iPhone sold, and they currently sell just under 50 million per quarter. It would be around 190 million units per year. So with AKP tech, if they were able to sell an extra 25 million iPhones because of the new audio, that equates to $10Billion in extra profit from one year from iPhones alone. Let alone any other technology. So $10B isn't that hard to part ways with if you know you'll make it back in one year from a competitive advantage.
