Human Resource Accounting (HRA) involves accounting for expenditures related to human resources as assets as opposed to traditional accounting which treats these costs as expenses that reduce profit. This makes a huge difference in the way a workforce will be perceived by a company. If the employee is an expense, then this has something of a negative connotation and workers can be viewed in a detrimental way. However, if the employee is an asset then this has a different set of implications. For example, assets are to be protected and to be used to their productive capacities.

For example, the company’s strategy also includes enhancing and expanding its own retail and online stores and its third-party distribution network to effectively reach more customers and provide them with a high-quality sales and post-sales support experience (Apple Inc., 2013). Apple only has so much room to operate in terms of market share. Therefore it makes more sense for the company to try to diversify horizontally and vertically into new markets. Although the supply chain for tangible products is largely outsourced, the company has opportunities to expand vertically in other more intangible segments such as software development.
