Answer:

Explanation:

The stockholders'equity section of the balance sheet refers to the worth of shareholders' investment in  the business.

It comprises of capital paid as well as the returns earned on it thus far,in other words,the retained earnings.

Common stock $1 stated value $150,000+($1*40000)       $190,000

Additional paid capital $3,050,000+($13*40,000)              $ 3,570,000

Total paid capital                                                                   $ 3,760,000

Retained earnings($12,400,000+$2,200,000-$460,000) $ 14,140,000

Stockholders equity                                                               $17,900,000

The retained earnings for the month is the opening retained earnings plus net income minus cash dividends declared,since dividends are been paid from retained earnings
