    The stockholder's equity section of Finishing Touches balance sheet:

    Common stock $100,000 (100,000 common shares - par $1)

    Preferred stock $24,000 (2,400 preferred shares - par $10)

    Additional paid-in capital-common $2,800,000 (to show difference between selling price and par value, calculated as (29-1) x 100,000)

    Additional paid-in capital-preferred $2,400 (to show difference between selling price and par value, calculated as (11-1) x 2,400)

    Retained Earnings $57,340 (calculated as Net income - total dividend paid out = $94,500 - $2,160 = $57,340)

    Treasury stock $ (187,000) (calculated as 34 * (11,000-5,500) = $187,000

    Additional paid-in, treasury $27,500 (calculated as amount received from the share resold - amount paid to the share repurchase and later resold = 39 * 5,500 - 34 * 5,500 = $27,500).

    Total Equity $2,824,240 (total number of all accounts above).
