B. $300,000
C. $200,000
D. $100,000

Respuesta :

Answer:

B. $300,000

Explanation:

For computing the dividend, the computation is shown below:

= Current E&P + accumulated E&P at the beginning of the year

= $200,000 + $100,000

= $300,000

The dividend is $300,000 which is less than the distributed amount i.e $400,000 So, the distribution of dividend is only $300,000 ,not the $400,000 and the same is considered.
