Christopher, let's say DELL has a 30% increase in number of PC's this quarter but makes $50 less money on each one. If you use $3000 as the average price per unit you get the following: last Q rev 1690 mil / 3000 = 563,000 units last Q net 103 mil / 563,000 = $172 per unit (172-50) * 563,000 * 1.3 = 89 mil net for this Q Based on the way DELL has been cutting it's prices this is not an unrealistic calculation. I tried adding up the cost of components for DELL's PC's and I think DELL might not even make $100 per unit. Can anyone fine tune these numbers?
