    Stockholders' equity at the end of the year was $110,000.

    Explanation:

    Beginning Balance of Stockholder's Equity = $40,000

    Net Income for the year = $90,000

    Dividend declared in the year = $20,000

    Ending Balance of Stockholder's Equity = Beginning Balance of Stockholder's Equity + Net Income for the year - Dividend declared in the year

    Ending Balance of Stockholder's Equity = $40,000 + $90,000 - $20,000

    Ending Balance of Stockholder's Equity = $110,000
