For those claiming Apple should be able to calculate the App Store's profit margin - can you actually define how to do it?

As someone who qualified as an accountant over 15 years ago, it's not obvious to me how you would develop a meaningful allocation of costs.

I suspect this misunderstanding stems from the same thinking that leads people to believe the myth that Costco makes no profit on its physical products, only on memberships.
