Answer:

$241,500 (Understated)

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for how much should Sheridan's retained earnings be retroactively adjusted at January 1, 2022

Retained earnings = $121,000 (Understated) + $200,000 (Understated) - $79,500 (Overstated)

Retained earnings = $241,500 (Understated)

Therefore by how much should Sheridan's retained earnings be retroactively adjusted at January 1, 2022 will be $241,500 (Understated)
