    The answer is $241,800

    Explanation:

    Step 1:

    We need to find Net income.

    Net income = Revenue - expense

    $402,000 - $351,000

    Net income is $51,000

    Step 2.

    Closing/ending retained earnings = beginning/starting retained earnings plus net income minus dividend.

    = $202,000 + $51,000 - $11,200

    =$241,800

    Therefore, Retained earnings on the balance sheet as of December 31, 2016 is $241,800
