Reply to comment by SUPRVLLAN in [OC] How Google makes money (its 2022 income statement visualized as a Sankey diagram) by IncomeStatementGuy

There’s revenue / income from tech sales regardless of whether it generates a profit or loss.

>Google’s hardware products, including the Pixel smartphone, the Chromebook laptop, and Nest smart home devices, generated a total of $19.6 billion in revenue in the same year.

Alphabet likes to hide costs and net income of segments unlike how granular they break down revenue. Might be a good thing since it can shield those segments from greedy investors and competitors. It's also hard to breakdown as I've heard they do have engineers that do work affecting multiple Google segments at the same time, which makes it hard to attribute costs accurately.
