The initial analysis comes by way of UBM TechInsights, who believe that a 16GB iPad LTE costs Apple just $310 in raw components, equaling a $319 margin on each iPad sold. So where’s all of the cost of each iPad going? The new Retina Display is the biggest burden against Apple’s bottom line, costing $70 per panel, compared to the iPad 2’s $49.50 display. And the universal Qualcomm LTE/3G chipset probably costs $21, more than twice what the 3G chip in the iPad 2 cost. Finally, the A5X costs $28 compared to the $22 an A5 cost.
