    Answer:

    $35,000

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The computation of the dividend amount is given below:

    As we know that

    Dividend Paid = Net income – Retained earnings for current year

    where,

    Retained earnings for current year = This year – last year

    = $500,000 – $425,000

    = $75,000

    Now

    Dividend Paid is  

    = $110,000 – $75,000

    = $35,000
