Explanation:

Net income = Accounts Fees earned - Office expense - Miscellaneous expense - Wages expense

                    = $900,000 - $300,000 - $15,000 - $450,000  

Net income = $135,000

Ending retained earnings at 31 May 2018 = Retained earnings as of 1 June 2017 + Net Income – Dividend paid

                                                                          = $300,000 + $135,000 - $10,000

Ending retained earnings at 31 May 2018 = $425,000
