While the money involved is relevant, the more relevant issue is the engineering involved.
The flaw with x86 is the insane complexity of the designs. This complexity means
- seven years to design a CPU (and so high latency in responding to changing markets)
- multiple design teams are required (and have to be paid) to create a new design every year
ARM is so much simpler (and will be even simpler when people start making ARMv8 only chips) that one can mount a serious challenge to Intel from below at VASTLY less expense, and on a VASTLY shorter timescale.

The money situation is different, yes, but not all in Intel's favor. To create a competitive chip requires much more expense in labor, and a better quality process. And then to compete requires selling that chip at essentially ARM prices. This is not sustainable. I expect Atom has lost zillions already, and it's going to get worse if Intel have REALLY done what they have claimed (moved Intel to annual tick-tock, with the 5 or 6 or 7 parallel design teams that requires).

Intel have two advantages
- better process
- substantially more experience in turboing a design from cruising speed to bursts of high speed and back.
The second is ephemeral. Apple (and for that matter Qualcomm) have been methodically working their way through the tools of high speed CPUs. They'll get to turboing soon. (Though before then they'll probably do common addressing between CPU and GPU, and HW TM.)
Better process will remain for a while --- but better process costs, and it costs a LOT.

And Intel aren't even just competing against ARM, they are competing against themselves. Every time they make Atom better, they steal market away from their desktop line...
(They've basically learned nothing from the past. What killed Itanium was the deliberate attempt to make it so complex that no-one else could ever copy it --- under the bizarre delusion that that same complexity would not affect Intel's attempts to wrestle with this monster.)
