    Retained earnings-Closing = $19,900

    Explanation:

    Given that,

    Revenues = $22,400

    Operating Expenses = $15,000

    Dividends = $4,500

    Retained Earnings (opening) = $17,000

    Net Income = Revenues - Operating expenses

    = $ 22,400 - $15,000

    = $7,400

    Statement of Retained Earnings:

    Retained earnings-Closing:

    = Retained earnings - opening + Net Income - Dividends

    = $17,000 + $7,400 - $4,500

    = $19,900
