The net income is the excess of fees earned by Adventure Travel  in the year ended  over its total expenses, in essence, we need to determine its total expenses first and foremost, which comprises of salaries expense, rent expense, depreciation expense, advertising expense and office supplies expense

total expenses=32,800+16,800+3960+4000+2800

total expenses=60,360

fees earned=75,000

net income =fees earned-total expenses

net income=75,000-60,360

net income=$14,640

Now the closing retained earnings comprises of beginning retained earnings plus the net income minus the cash dividends paid

Retained earnings=$14,640+$ 10,260-$1,000

Retained earnings=$23,900
