             Common Stock Retained Earings Total

Balance Jan 1 21,000                7,100        28,100

Dividends                                -1,000          -1,000

Balance, Dec 31 21,000                8,200       29,200

Explanation:

Service Revenue,   25,300

Salaries Expense,    (15,100)

Rent Expense            (8,100)

            net income    2,100
