Apple begins exporting India-made iPhones to Europ...
Not if you're paying X to produce these parts.
You can't say "this part is only worth $10" if it's costing you $100 to produce.

Does it actually cost $100 to produce an IC, though? Like, the manufacture of the device itself is relatively cheap, especially in volume— all the cost is R&D, test harnesses, simulation, license fees, etc.
