Why I will buy an iPad - an economic calculation
No entry.
I will definitely buy an iPad, and in the most capacious model (64gb). Since I will buy it from the company, and certainly from the VAT payer, it will cost me another 18% cheaper. And now - a little more.
The iPad will help me not to buy an e-book reader (10,000 rubles). I will not have to buy an additional iPod and put a screen in the car to watch the video - at the minimum it will save another 12,000 rubles. I will not have to carry my MacBook with me and will not have to buy anything small and light. Let me not have to buy a netbook, and let us talk about the cheapest netbook, for 10,000 rubles (cheaper, I think, absolutely rubbish.)
Using the stand, if I really want, I can watch the photo on the iPad, using it as a photo frame. Let it be the replacement of an inexpensive frame of 5000 rubles.
In addition, I will add here another 64 GB of storage. In the case of a disk drive, it will be about 7,000 rubles (on average), or, in the case of a bunch of flash drives (take 32GB flash drives) - 2 pieces, totaling roughly 5,000 rubles. Therefore, the cost of storage in 64 GB, I count on the bottom bracket - 5 000 rubles.
As a result, ipad will replace me:
Book reader - 10 000 rubles
iPod + video screen in the car - 10 000 rubles
Cheap netbook - 10 000 rubles
Photoframe - 5 000 rub
Storage in 64GB - 5 000 rub
Total: 40,000 rubles.
It remains to be seen whether the purchase of an iPad can replace the purchase of a navigator for me (it will be the cheapest tom-tom or the garmin) —6,000 rubles.
In the case of the navigator - the cost of the iPad “by device” is 46,000 rubles.
')
If I buy everything separately, then I will have a bunch of devices that are not connected to each other and not synchronized. I will get a lot of wires, a lot of cards, a lot of problems.
Therefore, it makes sense for me to buy an iPad at a price of up to 46,000 rubles (VAT at the top), that is, the amount in the account is 46,000 * 18% = 54,200 rubles.
Below will be a calculation of why the iPad will cost about 27,000 rubles, that is, not much more expensive than a netbook for 20,000 rubles.
Therefore, with the cost of the most expensive iPad at 40,000 rubles, I have an economic sense to buy it.
I deliberately do not write about applications that will certainly be useful to me, because iWork is at my home on poppies, mail on google for domine and many more useful things.
Even if I order it from the USA and customs it “in the forehead”, I will receive it.
$ 829 is the cost in the apple store. (most expensive with 3G support)
$ 50 - shipping
and 30% of the cost - fair customs.
Total: 1142 usd with taxes, shipping and customs. (18% VAT on import - included)
In rubles it is: 34,000 rubles (of which - 18% VAT)
That is (deducting VAT): 34,000 * 0.82 = 27,880 rubles.
Not bad.
UPD - a sane netbook will cost about 20,000 rubles. That is not much cheaper
Calculation on the most expensive iPad without 3G
699 + 50 + 1/3 = 975 usd in Russia with customs and transfer. and 18% VAT (laid down in the duty) = 28,600 rubles
That is (deducting VAT): 28,600 * 0.82 = 22,681 rubles.
UPD - a sane netbook will cost about 20,000 rubles. That is not much cheaper
And yet - the time saved from having to adjust everything in the case of a netbook - can also be attributed to advantages, not counting it for money. For me, the iPad is primarily a tool that will make it easier for me to reach out to customers and clients. If only because the presentation made in keynote on a poppy I can easily transfer to the iPad and show there.
In any case, it makes sense to me to buy an iPad.
And if Apple’s Russian distributors do not try to work with a 40% margin, then I will buy it in Russia.
UPD3. Reading the comments, I still can not understand the hatred of many for Apple products. But, gentlemen, I do not say "Everybody buy an iPad." I give a calculation why I will buy it and why I need it and profitable. So that ... And I do not say "for all", but for those who want to hear.
