a) Total stockholder's equity in the Balance sheet = preferred stock [10000 * $100] + common stock [115000*$10]+ Additional paid-in capital [$520,000] + Unappropriated retained earnings (after closing) [ $250,000] + Retained earnings appropriated for contingencies [$280,000] - Common treasury stock [260000]
= $1000000 + $1150000 + $520,000 + 250,000 + $280,000 - 260000
= $2940000
c) Book value of common stock = [Total stockholder's equity - preferred stock] / [common stock issued - number of treasury stock]
= [$2940000 - $1000000 / [115000 - 10000]
= $1940000 /105000
= $18.48
