Total Paid in capital = $81100

Total paid in capital and retained earnings = $124800

Total Stockholder's equity are = $114460

Explanation:

given data

Common Stock = $12 par value 5200 shares

shares issued = $62400

Paid-in Capital = $18700

Retained Earnings = $43700

Treasury Stock 470 shares = $10340

to find out

stockholders' equity section of the balance sheet

solution

we get first Total Paid in capital that is

Total Paid in capital = shares issued + Paid-in Capital ... 1

Total Paid in capital = $62400 + $18700

Total Paid in capital = $81100

and

Total paid in capital and retained earnings = Total Paid in capital + Retained Earnings ... 2

Total paid in capital and retained earnings = $81100 + $43700

Total paid in capital and retained earnings = $124800

and

so Total Stockholder's equity are = Total paid in capital and retained earnings - Treasury stock ... 3

Total Stockholder's equity are = $124800 - $10340

Total Stockholder's equity are = $114460
