Explanation / Answer

Increase in Assets = Increase in Cash - Decrease in Accounts Receivable + Increase in Inventory + Increase in Plant Assets
Increase in Assets = $28,540 - $17,130 + $51,060 + $46,890
Increase in Assets = $109,360

Increase in Liabilities = Increase in Accounts Payable - Decrease in Bonds Payable
Increase in Liabilities = $35,860 - $22,600
Increase in Liabilities = $13,260

Increase in Assets = Increase in Liabilities + Increase in Equity
$109,360 = $13,260 + Increase in Equity
Increase in Equity = $96,100

Increase in Equity = Increase in Common Stock + Increase in Paid-in Capital + Increase in Retained Earnings
$96,100 = $63,010 + $16,480 + Increase in Retained Earnings
Increase in Retained Earnings = $16,610

Increase in Retained Earnings = Net Income - Dividend Paid
$16,610 = Net Income - $17,030
Net Income = $33,640
