Not that I understand what the sentence starting with Cos means, but perhaps you should consider that there are even more important things than profit.
In my opinion Apple is one of the most evil companies going round. Almost totally closed, once they have you in the ecosystem, you may find it almost impossible to leave. Last quarterly report shows revenue of about 54 billion with a net profit of about 13 billion. That is 25%. Not too many other companies achieve that. And with 140 billion in the bank, the company is probably totally immune from regulators.
