Recently, as part of President Donald Trump\u2019s ongoing tariff<\/a> initiative against America\u2019s trade partners, Trump \u2014 in an effort to bring manufacturing back to the United States \u2014 threatened Apple with a 25% tariff for any iPhones sold in America but not made in the USA. Trump has argued that this tariff in specific, as well as his tariff policy in general, is part of a bid to bring jobs (and sales) back to American companies, per Reuters<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This raises the question \u2014 what would an iPhone made in the USA cost? What would other items made exclusively in America cost? Due in large part to the high labor and manufacturing costs within America\u2019s borders, a number of commonplace items would be almost prohibitively expensive if \u201cMade in the USA.\u201d<\/a><\/p>\n

Even before Trump\u2019s threat against Apple, CNBC<\/a> projected that Apple would have to spend<\/a> $30 billion over three years just to move 10% of its manufacturing overseas to America \u2014 and that 10% shift alone would increase the cost of the iPhone 16 Pro (now currently $1,199) to at least $1,5000 based on American labor costs alone, or to $3,500 after moving a mere 10% of its manufacturing to America.<\/p>\n

Be Aware: 4 Companies as Much as Tripling Prices Due To Tariffs<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Per CNBC<\/a>, there is no more expensive country to manufacture autos in than America. The average cost of a new car in Mexico? $40,700. Canada? $46,148. China? $51,000. Yet in America, the average new car price for a Made in the USA ride is $53,200.<\/p>\n

Since cars are already made in America, it\u2019s easy to see how much more they are than vehicles manufactured in other countries<\/a>. However, those prices could increase even further, as many American car manufacturers utilize imported materials from other countries, which would force American-made car prices to spike even further.<\/p>\n

Recently, Nasdaq<\/a> projected that furniture and household appliances<\/a> would cost shoppers an additional $1,500 to $3,000, based on American labor and manufacturing costs, as well as what such items cost during Trump\u2019s previous tariff era, in his first presidential administration.<\/p>\n
