Claim 18:
19. A method of manufacturing an inductor component that includes an annular core, a coil that is wound around the core and includes a plurality of pin members that are connected and include a first linear pin member, an exterior surface of the first linear pin that faces away from the core is flat and an interior surface of the first linear pin that faces toward the core is circular, and an electrode terminal including a mounting surface portion and a connection surface portion that is connected to the mounting surface portion, the method comprising:
bringing, in a state in which the mounting surface portion and the connection surface portion are developed on an identical plane, a connection surface of an outer peripheral surface of the first linear pin member into surface-contact with a first main surface of the connection surface portion, the connection surface of the outer peripheral surface of the first linear pin being one of the flat exterior surface and the circular interior surface, and welding the connection surface to the first main surface in a state in which the connection surface is positioned parallel to the first main surface; and
bending the connection surface portion relative to the mounting surface portion and causing the connection surface portion to stand perpendicular to the mounting surface portion.
