If your answer is "it depends", you should outline the conditions of accepting the apology immediatley. Then, leave the conversation at that and do not continue negotiating until a later time.

A heartfelt apology deserves a response.
Thank you
A sarcastic apology deserves no response at all. It would be intended to further a problem that already exists and deserves no additional fuel to the fire.

If someone apologizes to me for something they've said or done wrongly to me, then my reply is "I forgive you".
