Answer:

$209,600

Explanation:

Calculation of the net income (or loss) for the year

Stockholders’ equity = Total Capital + Net Income - Dividend

Therefore the Net Income will be:

Using this formula

Net income= Stockholders’ equity + Dividend - Total Capital

Where,

Stockholders’ equity =$343,200

Dividend =$20,000

Total Capital =$153,600

Let plug in the formula

Net income= $343,200 + $20,000 - $153,600

Net income= $209,600

Therefore the net income (or loss) for the year will be $209,600
