>Due to the lower than anticipated revenue and the increase of cash on hand, I estimate payables at around $400-$425 million. I do believe your brun is a bit too high. I suspect Amazon will have burned around $275 million in Q4.< Glenn, I don't know. Year end 1999 showed $463 million in payables. I figure that payables on Dec. 31, 2000 should be at least $625 million based on their increase in sales Q4 2000 over Q4 1999. If they pay that down to a level of $250 million by the end of Q1 2000, throw in some operating losses, mix it with a markdown of their internet investment portfolio that they've received from their soon to be defunct dot.com "partners" and you get a cash burn of $500 million easy in Q1 2000. Who knows what other evil lurks on their balance sheet..... The Shadow? kirby
