Here are the AMD financials
and I see "R & D expenses", I see "extraordinary expenses", and a lot of double-speak, but I did not see "depreciation" anywhere.
If it were a building IRS requires a 36 year amoritization of the building. The interior equipment can be depreciated on an accelerated basis. In the Q1 2001 Financial Statements it should be found under the "useful life of the equipment" schedule which can be 3 years, 5 years, or maybe seven years.
All this means that I don't see in any number below in these financials that shows a way for AMD to pay off a $2 billion plant using depreciation, extraordinary expenses, or any other numbers. Certainly not on their skimpy present profits....
Perhaps you can give me some concrete numbers since I did look at the AMD financials and I still don't see anything that makes any difference to their financials...
The numbers are:
