### Explanation
The template allows for the entry of asset values such as cash, accounts receivable, inventory, and net plant and equipment. The total value of assets is calculated and displayed at the bottom of the section.
Similarly, the liabilities and stockholders' equity section provides spaces for the entry of values for accounts payable, common stock, and retained earnings. The section concludes with a calculation of total liabilities and stockholders' equity, ensuring that the balance sheet equation (Assets = Liabilities + Equity) is maintained. The placeholder values of $0 indicate that these sections are to be filled with actual data.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F6b601fba-5f21-450e-bf33-90ce0182d9d7%2Faf84b52a-9815-4111-85c1-db0a7a597c2c%2Fvtsrqno_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
