Please refer answer for statement.

Explanation:

Provided information we have,

Opening balances as follows:

Common Stock Outstanding = $10,000

Retained Earnings = $7,800

Net income for the year = $8,100,

Dividends for the year = $2,800

Thus, net income added to retained earnings = $8,100 - $2,800 = $5,300

Additional common stock issued = $7,600

Statement of Stockholder's equity

Total Common Stock issued = $7,600

Earnings Retained = $5,300 = $5,300

Stockholder's Equity beginning balance = Equity + retained earnings = $10,000 + $7,800 = $17,800

Closing balance of equity = $30,700
