Respuesta :

Answer:

The total shareholders’ equity at the end of Year 1 is $487,400

Explanation:

The computation of the ending total shareholders’ equity is shown below:

= Common stock value in exchange of cash + net income + net holding gains - dividend paid

= $442,400 + $98,000 + $1,000 - $54,000

= $487,400

While calculating the ending balance of shareholder equity we added the net income, net holding gains and deducted the dividend paid to the common stock value amount
