Question

Fairway Company began Year 3 with owner's equity of $60,000 and ended Year 3 with owner's equity of $94,000. During the Year, Fairway issued 1,000 shares of new stock at a par value of $10 per share when the market value was $15 per share. Fairway also paid out a cash dividend of $2 per share to 20,000 shareholders during the year. What was net income for the year?

Tap to reveal answer

Answer

Ending owner's equity equals beginning owner's equity of $60K, plus cash received for the new shares of $10K, plus the missing net income amount, minus dividends paid of $40K. Thus, we can back into net income. Net income equals $94K - $60 - $10K + $40K = $64K.$104,000
