![**Balance Sheet Analysis**
Jack and Jill Corporation's year-end 2009 balance sheet provides the following financial details:
- Current Assets: $257,000
- Fixed Assets: $807,000
- Current Liabilities: $188,000
- Long-term Debt: $293,000
**Question:** What is Jack and Jill’s total stockholders’ equity?
**Options:**
1. $583,000
2. $1,064,000
3. $481,000
4. There is not enough information to calculate total stockholder's equity.
**Calculating Total Stockholders’ Equity:**
To calculate stockholders' equity, use the formula:
\[ \text{Stockholders' Equity} = \text{Total Assets} - \text{Total Liabilities} \]
Where:
- Total Assets = Current Assets + Fixed Assets
- Total Liabilities = Current Liabilities + Long-term Debt
Thus, the calculation is:
\[ \text{Total Assets} = 257,000 + 807,000 = 1,064,000 \]
\[ \text{Total Liabilities} = 188,000 + 293,000 = 481,000 \]
\[ \text{Stockholders' Equity} = 1,064,000 - 481,000 = 583,000 \]
Therefore, the correct answer is **$583,000**.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F504f9a44-b97f-4fd5-a72d-264d10f13ba2%2Fd433debb-3ce3-466b-8aa3-74e71d86cd6c%2F7ebbiv_processed.jpeg&w=3840&q=75)
