#### Description:
The Statement of Stockholders' Equity is a financial statement that details the changes in the equity section of the balance sheet over an accounting period. It provides insights into the financial health and activities of a company by showing how the value of stockholders' equity has changed from the beginning to the end of the period. Below is a template for the Statement of Stockholders' Equity.

#### Components Explained:
1. **Common Stock**:
- This column represents the amount invested by shareholders in exchange for shares of the company's common stock.
2. **Retained Earnings**:
- This column reflects the accumulated net income retained by the company rather than distributed as dividends to shareholders. It shows the profits reinvested in the business.
3. **Total**:
- The total equity, combining the amounts from the common stock and retained earnings columns.
#### Usage:
This template can be used to document the various transactions affecting stockholders' equity, such as:
- Issuance of new shares.
- Repurchase of shares.
- Dividends paid.
- Net income or loss for the period.
For educational purposes, students can fill in the template with hypothetical data to better understand how changes in stockholders' equity are tracked and reported.
