Respuesta :

Answer:

$205,000

Explanation:

Let us assume Owners' equity at the beginning be X

So, the Increase in Owners' equity is $260,000 - X

As we know that

Accounting equation is

Total assets = Total liabilities + total stockholder equity

So,

Total Increase in Assets = Total Increase in Liabilities + Increase in Owners' equity

$134,000 = $79,000 + $260,000 - X

$134,000 = $339,000 - X

So, the X =

= $339,000 - $134,000

= $205,000
