    Ending balance of retained earnings is $39,400

    Explanation:

    Given:

    Retained earnings credit balance = $30,600

    Revenue for the period = $95,200

    Expenses = $70,200

    Dividends = $16,200

    Retained earnings ending balance after making closing entries:

    Retained earnings ending balance = Retained earnings credit balance + Revenue - Expenses - Dividends

    = 30,600 + 95,200 - 70,200 - 16,200

    =$39,400

    Therefore, retained earnings ending balance is $39,400.
