How much money does it cost to make headphones?

Answer 1

The manufacturing cost of headphones can vary from less than $1.00 (cheap materials, third-world labor) to hundreds of dollars or even more. The sale cost of the headphones will be higher than the manufacturing cost, however it will also be relative to the manufacturing cost. A pair of cheap headphones that costs $1.00 to manufacture might sell for $1.50 a piece in bulk (because of poor materials and craftsmanship), and high-quality headphones that sell for $300 might cost only $100 to manufacture (for materials, and wages of the people who are working at the manufacturing plant), but the $200 might be split up among everyone involved like the company who makes them, the team of people who design them, the marketers that advertise them, the people that transport them to the store, the store that sells them, and whatever taxes the governments collect on them, etc.

I guess the answer is that there is no single answer. It all depends on what exact pair of headphones you're talking about and I don't think that anyone but the headphone maker can answer that.
