adjustment of error:

Depreciation expense for 2017           -44,600

Income for the year                             219,000

less Dividends                                      -13,000

Retained Earnings, Dec. 31, 2019  $1,013,400

Explanation:

The depreciation expense of $44,600 would be recorded by deducting it from the beginning retained earnings.  This adjusts the balance to reflect the previous year's errors.  Then the year's earnings are added before the payment of dividends.  The resultant figure is the retained earnings to be carried to the next accounting period.
