Although Apple is the fifth-largest Fortune 500 company, the gadget maker reports higher annual profits than any other company. Earnings for Apple totaled $39.5 billion in 2014, a 6.7% increase from a year earlier. Much of the press attention for Apple has swirled around the company's Apple Watch, but it's the iPhone that by far remains the tech giant's best-selling gadget. Results last year greatly benefited from the launch of two bigger-screened smartphones: the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus.
