Respuesta :

Answer:

The balance of the company's retained earnings account is $33,000

Explanation:

The computation of retained earning balance is shown below:

= Assets - Liabilities - shareholder equity

where,

Assets = Accounts receivable + Cash + equipment + prepaid insurance + supplies

= $8,000 + $7,000 + $44,000 + $4,000 + $2,000

= $65,000

Liabilities = Accounts payable + notes payable + unearned service revenue

               = $6,000 + $8,000 + $3,000

               = $17,000

And, the common stock is $15,000

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the answer would be equal to

= $65,000 - $17,000 - $15,000

= $33,000
