    Owner's Equity = $625,000

    Explanation:

    given data

    total assets = $550,000

    total liabilities = $200,000

    total assets increased = $200,000

    total liabilities decreased = $75,000,

    solution

    Total Assets Total Liabilities

    Beginning $550,000 $200,000

    Changing + 200,000 - 75,000

    Ending balance $750,000 $125,000

    so Owner's Equity = Total Assets - Total Liabilities

    Owner's Equity = $750,000 - $125,000

    Owner's Equity = $625,000
