Answer: $80,242

Explanation:

Common stock = Assets - Liabilities - Retained earnings

Assets next year = 256,555 + 55,000

= $311,555

Liabilities remain unchanged.

Retained earnings

= Opening retained earnings + Net income - dividends

= 49,793 + 44,200 - 12,000

= $‭81,993‬

Common stock next year;

= 311,555 - 149,320 - 81,993

= $80,242
