c.

To determine

Ascertain the percentage of assets provided by the retained earnings and find out the amount of cash in the retained earnings account.

Explanation of Solution

Retained earnings:

Retained earnings are the portion of earnings kept by the business for the purpose of reinvestments, payment of debts, or for future growth.

Calculate the percentage of assets provided by retained earnings:

$\begin{array}{c}\begin{array}{l}\text{Percantage}\text{of}\text{assets}\\ \text{provided}\text{by}\text{retained}\text{earnings}\end{array})\text{=}\frac{\text{Retained}\text{earnings}}{\text{Total}\text{Assets}}\text{×100}\\ \text{=}\frac{\text{\$10,000}}{\text{\$56,000}}\text{×100}\\ \text{=17}\text{.9\%}\end{array}$

Retained earnings are used to purchase assets or to pay liabilities and therefore, the amount of cash in the retained earnings accounts cannot be determined

Conclusion

Therefore, the percentage of assets provided by retained earnings is 17.9%.
