The $12,000 dividend declaration is made during its recent year of operation

Explanation:

In this question, we have to apply the formula which is shown below:

The ending balance of retained earning = Beginning balance of retained earnings + net income - dividend paid

$80,000 = $65,000 + $27,000 - dividend paid

$80,000 = $92,000 - dividend paid

So, the dividend paid equals to

= $92,000 - $80,000

= $12,000

These items would be displayed in the retained earnings statement
