Please help! I can't figure out how to compute Dec 31, 2010 retained earnings in order to prepare a statement of changes in equity.
QUESTION:
Your Company reports the following for 2010:
Net income $50,000
Unrealized holding loss on securities through Other Comprehensive Income for 2010 of $60,000
For January 1, 2010, the company's balances are as follows:
Common shares of $600,000;
Accumulated other comprehensive income of $250,000;
Retained earnings of $900,000.
On December 15, 2010, the board of directors declared a $300,000 dividend payable January 31, 2011.
Prepare a statement of changes in equity.
