Answer:

C. $454,000.

Explanation:

We know that

The ending balance of retained earnings = Opening balance of retained earnings + net income - dividend paid

$375,000 = $0 + net income - $79,000

So, the net income would be

= $375,000 + $79,000

= $454,000

The ending balance of retained earnings - Opening balance of retained earnings is also known as increase in retained earning
