Answer:

c. $363 million

Explanation:

We can compute this easily by making a retained earning extract from the balance sheet at the closing date,

Opening Retained earnings                    $12,329

Add retained earnings for the year         $556

Less: Dividends paid                                 $363

Closing Retained earnings                       $12,522

Reverse calculating the information gives us c. $363 million

Hope that helps.
