I happened to pass by yahoo finance and found a strange thing about microsoft. It is maintaining a huge negative retained earning in its balance sheet. Normally a well-run company has a positive retained earning in its balance sheet,
like Motorola who has 8Billion retained earning. Microsoft makes more than 5Billion more profit than Motorola every quarter. But why does it keep a negative retained earning? What's the reason behind it?
