Respuesta :

Answer:

2.$19,500.

Explanation:

The computation of the amount of dividend is shown below:

As we know that

Ending retained earning balance = Beginning retained earning balance + net income - cash dividend paid

$13,000 = $13,000 + $6,500 × 3 years - cash dividend paid

So, the cash dividend paid is $19,500

We simply applied the above formula

Hence, the correct option is 2.
