Answer:

See below

Explanation:

The above is an incomplete question, however, from a similar question values of beginning retained earnings, ending retained earnings were given to compute the dividend paid.

Given that;

Beginning retained earnings = $700 million

Ending retained earnings = $450 million

Net income = $1,516 million

Closing retained earning = Beginning retained earning + Net income - Dividends paid

$450 = $700 + $1,516 - Dividends paid

$450 = $2,216 - Dividends paid

Dividends paid = $1,766
