    B. $8000

    Explanation:

    Given that

    Income = $9000

    Beginning book value = 76000

    Ending book value = 77000

    Dividends = Income + beginning book value of equity - ending book value of equity.

    Therefore,

    Dividends = 9000 + 76000 - 77000

    = 85000 - 77000

    = $8000

    Thus, dividends for the following year given the following data is = $8000
