salaries paid           (340,000)
interest paid             (3,000)
other expenses paid    (195,000) Â
cash dividend paid      (20,000) Â
net                    (6,000)
For the income statement we use the accrued base and we do not consider the dividends.
Service revenue   587,000
salaries expense  (355,000)
interst expense     (3,000)
other expenses   (195,000) Â
income before tax   34,000
income tax (35%) Â Â (11,900) Â Â
net income         22,100
The retained earnigns will increase by the net income amount and decrease with the dividends paid.
