Answer:

b. $556,000.

Explanation:

Retained Earning is an account where all the earnings of the company accumulate and dividend is also paid from this account because it represents the amount the earning associated with the stockholders of the company.

December 31, 2018 Balance of Retained Earning = December 31, 2017 Balance of Retained Earning + Income for the year - Dividend Paid / Declared during the year.

$1,164,000 = $1,440,000  + $1,000,000 - Dividend Paid / Declared during the year.

$1,164,000 = $2,440,000 - Dividend Paid / Declared during the year.

Dividend Paid / Declared during the year = $2,440,000 - $1,164,000

Dividend Paid / Declared during the year = $1,276,000

Stock Dividend Paid - $500,000 + $220,000 = $720,000

Cash Dividend Paid = $1,276,000 - $720,000 = $556,000

If the insurer takes the policy as applied for the coverage will take effect when the conditions of the receipt are met and from the date of the application or medical exam. The two types of conditional receipts are insurability and approval. The insurability receipt provides interim coverage as the applicant is insurable while the approval receipt will not begin until the insurer will approve the claim. However, conditional receipts will provide the coverage if the applicant is insurable as applied for and coverage will not be delivered until the applicant accepts the coverage if the insurer concerns a counter-offer because the applicant is substandard risk.
