0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 112 | Management considers these policies critical because they are both important to the portrayal of the Company’s financial condition and operating results, and they require management to make judgments and estimates about inherently uncertain matters. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |

0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 117 | For most of the Company’s product sales, these criteria are met at the time the product is shipped. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 118 | For online sales to individuals, for some sales to education customers in the U.S., and for certain other sales, the Company defers recognition of revenue until the customer receives the product because the Company retains a portion of the risk of loss on these sales during transit. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 119 | The Company recognizes revenue from the sale of hardware products (e.g., Mac computers, iPhones, iPods and peripherals), software bundled with hardware that is essential to the functionality of the hardware, and third-party digital content sold on the iTunes Store in accordance with general revenue recognition accounti... | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |

0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 121 | For multi-element arrangements that include tangible products containing software essential to the tangible product’s functionality and undelivered software elements relating to the tangible product’s essential software, the Company allocates revenue to all deliverables based on their relative selling prices. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 122 | In such circumstances, the new accounting principles establish a hierarchy to determine the selling price to be used for allocating revenue to deliverables as follows: (i) vendor-specific objective evidence of fair value (“VSOE”), (ii) third-party evidence of selling price (“TPE”) and (iii) best estimate of the selling... | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |

0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 126 | The Company has allocated revenue between these two deliverables using the relative selling price method. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 127 | Because the Company has neither VSOE nor TPE for the two deliverables, the allocation of revenue has been based on the Company’s ESPs. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 128 | Amounts allocated to the delivered hardware and the related essential software are recognized at the time of sale provided the other conditions for revenue recognition have been met. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |

0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 130 | All product cost of sales, including estimated warranty costs, are generally recognized at the time of sale. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |

0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 132 | If the estimated life of the hardware product should change, the future rate of amortization of the revenue allocated to the software upgrade right will also change. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 133 | For all periods presented, the Company’s ESP for the software upgrade right included with each iPhone sold is $25. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 134 | The Company’s process for determining its ESP for deliverables without VSOE or TPE involves management’s judgment. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |

0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 136 | The Company believes its customers, particularly
consumers, would be reluctant to buy unspecified software upgrade rights related to iPhone. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 137 | This view is primarily based on the fact that upgrade rights do not obligate the Company to provide upgrades at a particular time or at all, and do not specify to customers which upgrades or features will be delivered in the future. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 138 | Therefore, the Company has concluded if it were to sell upgrade rights on a standalone basis, such as those included with iPhone, the selling price would be relatively low. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 139 | Key factors considered by the Company in developing the ESPs for iPhone upgrade rights include prices charged by the Company for similar offerings, the Company’s historical pricing practices, the nature of the upgrade rights (e.g., unspecified and when-and-if-available), and the relative ESP of the upgrade rights as co... | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 140 | If the facts and circumstances underlying the factors considered change or should future facts and circumstances lead the Company to consider additional factors, the Company’s ESP for software upgrades related to future iPhone sales could change in future periods. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 141 | If the Company’s ESP for the unspecified software upgrade rights related to iPhone had been $5 or 20% higher or lower, the Company’s net sales for the year ended September 26, 2009 would have decreased or increased by $50 million as compared to the Company’s net sales of $42.9 billion. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 142 | The Company records reductions to revenue for estimated commitments related to price protection and for customer incentive programs, including reseller and end-user rebates, and other sales programs and volume-based incentives. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |

0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 144 | The Company’s policy requires that, if refunds cannot be reliably estimated, revenue is not recognized until reliable estimates can be made or the price protection lapses. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 145 | For customer incentive programs, the estimated cost of these programs is recognized at the later of the date at which the Company has sold the product or the date at which the program is offered. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 146 | The Company also records reductions to revenue for expected future product returns based on the Company’s historical experience. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 147 | Future market conditions and product transitions may require the Company to increase customer incentive programs and incur incremental price protection obligations that could result in additional reductions to revenue at the time such programs are offered. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 148 | Additionally, certain customer incentive programs require management to estimate the number of customers who will actually redeem the incentive. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 149 | Management’s estimates are based on historical experience and the specific terms and conditions of particular incentive programs. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 150 | If a greater than estimated proportion of customers redeem such incentives, the Company would be required to record additional reductions to revenue, which would have a negative impact on the Company’s results of operations. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 151 | Valuation and Impairment of Marketable Securities

0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 156 | In making this judgment, the Company evaluates, among other things, the duration and extent to which the fair value of an investment is less than its cost, the financial condition of the issuer and any changes thereto, and the Company’s intent to sell, or whether it is more likely than not it will be required to sell, ... | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
0000320193 | 20100125 | 10-K/A | 157 | The Company’s assessment on whether an investment is other-than-temporarily impaired or not, could change in the future due to new developments or changes in assumptions related to any particular investment. | 0001193125-10-012091/full-submission.txt |
