Answer: $1,031 million
Explanation:
Given that,
Retained earnings(2010) = $14,329 million
Retained earnings(2009) = $13,157 million
Net income(2010) = $2,203 million
Amount of dividends = Retained earnings(2009) + Net income(2010) - Retained earnings(2010)
= $13,157 million + $2,203 million - $14,329 million
