Explanation:

For computation of total stockholders’ equity first we need to find out the total capital stock and total paid in capital which is shown below:-

Total Capital stock = Preferred stock + Common stock

= $153,000 + $20,300,000

= $20,453,000

Total Paid in capital = Paid in capital in excess of par of common stock + Paid in capital in excess of par of preferred stock

= $25,000,000 + $59,000

= $25,059,000

Total stockholder equity = Total Capital stock + Total Paid in capital + Retained earning - Treasury stock

= $20,453,000 + $25,059,000 + $7,600,000 - $655,200

= $52,456,800 - $655,200

= $52,456,800

Therefore for computing the total stockholder equity we applied the above formula.
