Answer:
$459,000
Explanation:
The computation of the ending retained earning balance is shown below:
Ending retained earning balance is
= Opening retained earning balance + net income - dividend
where
Net income
= Service revenue - operating expenses
= $827,000 - $748,000
= $79,000
Now the ending retained earnings balance is
= $444,000 + $79,000 - $64,000
= $459,000
