In other words, the innovations by suppliers, retailers and distributors, Intellectual property owners and complementary asset (accessories) providers within a value chain system result in profit distribution among these above mentioned parties. The third major factor is the ‘industry standards’ set by top companies and market players. In explanation, the quality maintenance, number of product features, reliability and authenticity of products offered by leading companies actually become the standards / thresholds that influence the profits from innovation (Dedrick et al, 2009).

It is worthwhile to mention the fact that Dedrick et al (2009) developed a new approach so that they could calculate and analyse the differences in value capturing and the impact on profit margins. Indeed, the authors used the teardown data obtained for two different products: first was Apple’s iPod and the second was notebooks / laptops models offered by Hewlett Packard (HP) and Lenovo. The main reason behind choice of these two products was that they are manufactured and assembled in many nations across the globe including USA, Japan, China, Taiwan, South Korea and other countries. First of all, the researcher would like to highlight that these computing and mobile products are made up of several large / small components developed by many organisations worldwide. However, only
