      Competitive Landscape Brief

      Demand is tied to consumer and business income. The profitability of individual computer companies depends on purchasing and production efficiencies, and on technological expertise. Large companies have economies of scale in purchasing and production. Small companies can compete successfully by specializing in certain products or by developing superior technology. The industry is capital-intensive: annual revenue per employee is about $460,000. US imports of computer equipment amount to nearly $100 billion, more than half from China. Exports are about $45 billion, with more than a third going collectively to Mexico and Canada.
