    C. $32,900

    Explanation:

    The computation of the beginning retained earning balance is shown below"

    As we know that

    The ending balance of retained earning = Beginning balance of retained earnings + net income - dividend paid

    $51,100 = Beginning retained earning balance + $22,500 - $4,300

    $51,100 = Beginning retained earning balance + $18,200

    So, the beginning retained earning balance would be

    = $51,100 - $18,200

    = $32,900
