12. At the beginning of 2016, Yiwang PLC had assets of ¥540,000 and liabilities of ¥320,000. During the year, assets increased by ¥50,000 and liabilities decreased by ¥10,000. What was the total amount of stockholders' equity at the end of 2016?

Respuesta :

Answer:

¥280,000

Explanation:

In this question, we applied the accounting equation which is presented below:

Total assets = Total liabilities + Shareholder equity

where,

Total assets =  ¥540,000 +  ¥50,000 =  ¥590,000

Total liabilities =  ¥320,000 -  ¥10,000 =  ¥310,000

So, the total  amount of stockholders' equity would be

= ¥590,000 - ¥310,000

= ¥280,000
