    a. $1,765,000

    Explanation:

    Total stockholder's equity on December 31, 2013 = Total equity at end 2012 - amount paid for 3,000 shares were reacquired at $28 per share - amount paid for 3,000 shares were reacquired at $35 per share + amount collect from 1,800 shares of treasury stock were sold at $30 per share + net income of $450,000

    = $1,450,000 - 3,000 * $28 - 3,000 * $35 + 1,8000 * $30 + $450,000 = $1,765,000
