DW has an ending Retained Earnings balance of $51,600. If during the year DW paid dividends of $4,100 and had net income of $21,100, then what was the beginning Retained Earnings balance

Respuesta :

Answer:

$34,600

Explanation:

The computation of beginning retained earnings balance is seen below:

But we know that;

Ending balance of retained earnings = Beginning balance of retained earnings + Net income - Dividend paid

$51,600 = Beginning retained earnings + $21,100 - $4,100

Beginning retained earnings = $51,600 - $21,100 + $4,100

Beginning retained earnings = $34,600
