INCOME STATEMENT
SERVICE REVENUE = 25000
LESS:-RENT EXPENSE = (10000)
LESS:-ADVERTISING EXPENSE = (4000)
LESS:-SUPPLIES EXPENSE = (1700)
PROFIT = 9300
LESS:DIVIDEND PAID = (2500)
PROFIT TRANSFERRED TO RETAINED EARNINGS = 6800
RETAINED EARNINGS ARE THE UNDISTRIBUTED PROFIT OF THE COMPANY FOR A FINANCIAL YEAR THAT IS RE-INVESTED IN THE COMPANY .
ONE MORE WAY TO FIND RETAINED EARNINGS:-
BALANCE SHEET
ASSETS = ACCOUNTS RECIEVABLE + CASH + SUPPLIES + EQIPMENT
= 2000 + 3100 + 1900 + 26800
= 33800
ASSETS = LIABILITIES
LIABILITIES = ACCOUNT PAYABLE + NOTES PAYABLE + COMMON STOCK + RETAINED EARNIGS
33800 = 5000 + 7000 + 15000 +  RETAINED EARNINGS
RETAINED EARNINGS = 6800
