Romeo · Answer 1

B. $332,000

Explanation:

The computation of the total assets is shown below:

= Invested amount + total revenues - total expenses - cash dividends paid

= $300,000 + $60,000 - $16,000 - $12,000

= $300,000 + $60,000 - $28,000

= $300,000 + $32,000

= $332,000

Invested amount reflect the capital and the total revenues minus total expenses minus cash dividend reflects the retained earnings
