Answer 1

Answer:

net income 15,600

Explanation:

retained earnings for the end of the year:

first, we solve for the net income, which is the difference between our revenues and expenses.

net income

28,900 revenue

(13,300) expenses

15,600 net income

 (1,600) cash dividends

14,000 ending retained earnings.

Then, we subtract the cash dividends to get the amount of ending retained earnings.
