On Thursday, Xinhua News Agency, the country's official press publication, reported that the Minister of Finance ordered Apple to cough up 452 million yuan ($71 million) that the company failed to pay in tax in 2013. It added that the Californian tech giant has paid a 65 million yuan ($10 million) fine in addition to the tax money owed.

According to Xinhua, Apple's Chinese subsidiary had improperly listed its revenues and costs in 2013, understating them by 8.8 billion yuan ($1.4 million) and 3.4 billion yuan ($532,000) respectively. It also inflated its posted profits by 5.4 billion yuan ($846,000).
