2. stockholder's equity section in balance sheet:
common stock = 10,000,000 (2016 balance) + 550,000 (Jan 1) + 50,000 (Feb 15) + 1,166,000 (Nov 30) = $11,766,000
Additional paid in capital = 400,000 (2016 balance) + 440,000 (Jan 1) + 30,000 (feb 15) + 233,200 (nov 1)+4,000 (dec 20) = 1,107,200
Retained earnings = 500,000,000 (2016 balance) - 1,484,000 (Mar 1) - 1,399,200 (nov 1) = $497,116,800
