Answer and Explanation:

The preparation of the retained earnings statement for the year ended December 31, 20 is presented below:

Bramble Corporation

Retained Earning statement

For the year ended December 31, 2022

Beginning balance of retained earning $10,584

Add: Net income $5,880

Less: Cash Dividend paid - $4,200

Ending balance of retained earning $12,264

The net income is computed below:

= Service revenue - salaries and wages expense - insurance expense - rent expense - supplies expense - depreciation expense

= $25,200 - $12,600 - $1,680 - $3,780 - $420 - $840

= $5,880
