Expert Answer
Solution
Change in assets:$56,000-$43000-$105,000+$262,000-$88,000=$82,000
Change in liabilities=$117,000-$64,000+$23,000-$100,000= -$24,000
stockholders equity=change in assets-change in liabilities
=$82,000-(-$24000)
$106,000
Net income =$106,000-$75,000+$165,000
=$196,000
Net income=$196,000
