iPhone Accounting Issue
In 2010, the FASB changed their rules allowing cellular providers to book revenue when a product is sold, rather than booking it as revenue and profit from sales over time.
This allowed Apple accountants to receive cash from iPhone sales immediately, rather than over the 2 years each customer is under contract of the phone.
