Answer:
Net income for the year: 1,206
Explanation:
from the RE formula we have:
[tex]Beginning \: RE +/- Net \: Income(loss) - Dividends = Ending \: RE[/tex]
If RE decreased by 306 then:
beginning - ending = -306
we can shape the initial formula doing:
[tex]Beginning \: RE - Ending \: RE +/- Net \: Income(loss) - Dividends = 0[/tex]
We post the value of the change in RE and the dividends
[tex](306) +/- Net \: Income(loss) - 900 = 0[/tex]
Net Income = 900+306 = 1,206
