Respuesta :

Answer:

The dividend amount is $25,000

Explanation:

The amount of dividend which is declared during 2018 is computed as:

Dividend = Net Income + Retained Earnings of 2017 - Retained Earnings of 2018

where

Net Income is $91,000

Retained Earnings of 2017 is $89,000

Retained Earnings of 2018 is $155,000

Putting the values in the above:

= $91,000 + $89,000 - $155,000

= $180,000 - $155,000

= $25,000
