Answer: Ending equity is $286,000
We have:
Beginning Equity (BE) = $265000
Net Income (NI) = $55000
Dividends (D) = $44000
Stockholder Investments (SI) = $10000
[tex] Ending Equity = BE + NI - D +SI [/tex]
[tex] Ending Equity = 265000 + 55000 - 44000 +10000 [/tex]
[tex] Ending Equity = 286000 [/tex]
