$ 8600

Retained earnings = Beginning Retained earnings + Net income – Dividends

Retained earnings (1) = 0 + 1200 – 500 = $700

Retained earnings (2) = 700 + 1700 – 500 = $1900

Retained earnings (3) = 1900 + 2100 – 1000 = $3000

Retained earnings (4) = 3000 + 3200 – 1000 = $5200

Retained earnings (5) = 5200 + 4400 – 1000 = $8600

  1. Consider the following unrelated scenarios:
  1. Leon reports an increase in retained earnings of $2.2 billion and net income of $4.9 billion. What was the amount of dividends paid?

   

Dividends = Beginning Retained earnings + Net income – Retained earnings.

Dividends = 0 + $4.9 billion – $2.2 billion = $2.7 billion

 

  1. Moore reports an increase in retained earnings of $2.4 billion and dividends of $1.6 billion. What was the amount of net income?

Net income = Dividends + Retained earnings - Beginning Retained earnings.

Net income = $1.6 billion + $2.4 billion – 0 = $4.0 billion

  1. Nandu reports and increase in retained earnings of $1.5 billion and net income of $1.5 billion. What was the amount of dividends paid?

Dividends = Beginning Retained earnings + Net income – Retained earnings.

Dividends = 0 + $1.5 billion – $1.5 billion = $ 0

  1. Ovid reports beginning retained earnings of $(1.8) billion, a net loss of $0.9 billion, and no dividends. What is the amount of ending retained earnings?

Retained earnings = Beginning Retained earnings + Net income – Dividends

Retained earnings = $(1.8) billion + $(0.9) billion + 0 = $(2.7) billion

  1. Pulse reports ending retained earnings of $1.36 billion, net income of $0.33 billion, and dividends of $0.05 billion. What is the amount of beginning retained earnings?

Beginning Retained earnings = Retained earnings (end) - Net income + Dividends.
