I think I may have confused myself with this homework question. OKay if a companys earned 82 million last year and paid out 20 % of earnings in dividends I take 820 million x 20 % = 164 million that is the 20 % that was paid out. But it also asks how much did the company's retained earnings increase? I am not sure I understand this part?
