Answer:

$665,500

Explanation:

The computation of ending retained earning balance is shown below:

The ending retained earnings balance = Opening retained earning balance - cash dividend declared - overstatement of inventory error + net income - stock dividend declared

= $539,000 - $119,000 - $39,500 + $344,500 - $59,500

= $665,500

We simply added the net income and the rest of the items are deducted to find out the ending retained earning balance
