    Stock holder's equity in 2017 is $1,680,000

    Explanation:

    Given:

    Common stock = $600,000

    Paid in capital = $800,000

    Retained earnings = $350,000 that is (200,000 + 150,000)

    Stock holders' account credited = 600,000 + 800,000 + 350,000

    = $1,750,000

    Treasury stock cost = $50,000

    Unrealized loss on non-current marketable equity securities = $20,000

    Total stockholders' account debited = 50,000 + 20,000

    = $70,000

    Balance of stockholders' equity as on 31 December 2017 = 1,750,000 - 70,000

    = $1,680,000
