Answer:

Total assets=Total liabilities+Total equity

a.Stockholders' equity as of December 31, 2015=811,000-195,000

=$616000

b.Total assets would be=811,000-154000

=$657000

Total liabilities would be=195000+47000

=$242000

Hence Stockholders' equity as of December 31, 2016 =$657000-242000

=$415000
