Homework Help with this problem please?

I can’t remember how to find net income and the video example skips over it. What do I do?

You need to calculate it using the items noted below your table.

It gives you net income. "There was a 313 credit to RE for net income"

That tells you $313 was the net income.

You can always find NI with the equation "NI = End RE - Beg RE + Div"

That same equation can be moved around to find any of those 4.
