Abstract:
Title: Apple vs. Samsung: Financial comparisonAbstract:Apple and Samsung are two of the biggest names in the tech world, each taking a unique approach to business and innovation. This project explores their financial performance from 2022 to 2024, comparing key factors like revenue, profit, stock growth, and investment in research and development (R&D). Using data from trusted sources such as Yahoo Finance and Bloomberg, this analysis highlights the strengths and differences between these two industry leaders.The results show that Apple continues to lead in profitability and stock market performance, thanks to its high-margin products and growing services sector. On the other hand, Samsung’s broad range of products and dominance in semiconductors provide it with financial stability, making it resilient in changing market conditions. This study also looks at what these differences mean for investors—Apple appeals to those seeking high returns, while Samsung offers a steadier, more balanced investment option.By examining these financial trends, this research helps shed light on how two major tech giants maintain success in a competitive industry and what their strategies mean for the future.
