Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

                                       Walco Corporation      Gunther Enterprises

Beginning of year

Total assets                             $120,000              $144,000

Total liabilities                           $62,000              $ (d)

Total stockholders' equity     $ (a)                        $ 75,000

End of year

Total assets                            $ (b)                       $ 178,000

Total liabilities                        $ 129,000              $ 51,000

Total stockholders' equity    $ 51,100                  $ (e)

Changes during year in retained earnings

Dividends                              $ (c)                        $ 5,400

Total revenues                     $219,000               $ (f)

Total expenses                    $160,000               $82,000

a (Equity) = total assets - total liabilities = $120,000 - 62,000 = $58,000

b (Assets) = total liabilities + equity = $129,000 + $51,100 = $180,100

c (Dividends) = (total revenues - total expenses) + (beginning equity - ending equity) = $219,000 - 160,000 + 58,000 - 51,100 = $65,900

d (Liabilities) = Total assets - equity = $144,000 - $75,000 = $69,000

e (Equity) = total assets - total liabilities = $178,000 - 51,000 = $127,000

f  (Total revenues) = total expenses + dividends + change in equity

= $82,000 + $5,400 + (127,000 - 75,000)

= $139,400
