    a. both the statement of stockholders' equity and the balance sheet

    Explanation:

    As we know that

    The statement of stockholder equity comprises of common stock and the retained earning

    The motive of preparing the statement of stockholder equity to find out the ending balance with respect to the common stock and the retained earnings

    The computation is shown below:

    The ending balance of retained earning = Beginning balance of retained earnings + net income - dividend paid

    And, the ending balance of the common stock = Beginning balance of common stock + issued shares

    Therefore, it would be presented on the statement of stockholders' equity and the balance sheet
