I thought the slowest sales time was the late spring and summer. Manufacturing would lead this by one quarter and so there will be low sales in the summer and high fabrication costs, that will make the low point. Costs to make and low sales.
Next the fall and good sales and good fabrication, Some money accumulation followed by winter good sales and slower fabrication, a time of better money accumulation(which we are now seeing) and the cycle is complete.
Who were the buyers in June 1977. Schools for the fall?, no they will want them in August. Business, ?. no level all year, and students?, no fall time is theirs, retailers?, unless Apple had a huge surplus dumpout and got anomalous sales from it. Was that it?, high sales with losses?? That is a mystery to me. Was there some accounting artifact that produced it?
