Explanation:

Calculation to determine the balance in the investment account on December 31, 2021

Using this formula

December 31, 2021 Balance in the investment account=Voting common stock-Net loss-Dividends

December 31, 2021 Balance in the investment account=$1,100,000 - $33,600 - $8,400

December 31, 2021 Balance in the investment account=$1,058,000
