Answers:

Years:

  1. $700
  2. $1,900
  3. $3,000
  4. $5,200
  5. $8,600

Explanation:

Retained earnings for the year is:

= Beginning retained earnings + Net income - Dividends

Year 1

= 0 + 1,200 - 500

= $700

Year 2

= 700 + 1,700 - 500

= $1,900

Year 3

= 1,900 + 2,100 - 1,000

= $3,000

Year 4

= 3,000 + 3,200 - 1,000

= $5,200

Year 5

= 5,200 + 4,400 - 1,000

= $8,600
