Answer: $22000
Step-by-step explanation:
The amount of Superior's dividend declarations during its recent year of operation will be calculated thus:
Ending retained earnings ($91000) = Beginning retained earnings ($75000) + Net income ($38000) - Dividend declared
$91000 = $113000 - Dividend declared
Dividend declared = $113000 - $91000
Dividend declared = $22000
Therefore, Superior's dividend declarations during its recent year of operation is $22000
