Answer:

A. 10,000

Explanation:

The dividends declared during the company's recent year can be viewed from the perspective of changes in retained earnings since the  end of the year retained earnings are a function of the beginning of the year retained earnings, net income and dividends as captured in the formula below:

closing retained earnings=beginning retained earnings+net income-dividends

closing retained earnings=$91,000.

beginning retained earnings=$75,000

net income=$26,000

dividends=the unknown

$91,000=$75,000+$26,000-dividends

dividends=$75,000+$26,000-$91,000

dividends=$10,000
