Answer:

$297,000

Explanation:

In this question, we use the ending retained earning equation which is shown below:

Ending retained earning balance = Beginning retained earning balance + net income - dividends paid

$2,499,000 = $2,242,000 + net income - $40,000

$2,499,000 = $2,202,000 + net income

So, the net income = $2,499,000 - $2,202,000

                                =  $297,000

There is no use of the common shares issued in the computation part
