As we know that the Net Income is arrived after subtracting expenses from the revenue.
Here Revenue is 2250, expenses are $1500 and dividends are $300
Net Income is Revenue - Expenses - interest expenses - depriciaition - tax
We will not subtract dividends because dividend is not an expense
We deduct dividend to arrive at Retained earnings from Net income
Thus Net income = 2250 - 1500 = 750
Retained Earnings = Net Income - Dividends = 750-300 = $450
Company had assets of $1800 in previous year and they would increase exactly by which the Equity and Liability side increases. Thus it will increase by $450 (assuming everything else remains same)
Thus Assets = 1800 + 450 = $2250
