Answer:

Owner's equity at year end would be $61,100

Explanation:

$58,900(Beginning equity) + $8,200 (Net income increases owner's equity) - $2,500 (This is paid out of retained earnings/owner's equity) - $3,500 ( A repurchase of stocks reduced owner's equity as cash would have been given to the shareholder for their equity) = $61,100
