Explanation:

(A)

We calcualte RE ending balance using the accounting equation:

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

390,100 = 59,900 + Common stock + RE

390,100 = 59,900 + (650,000 + 34,000) + RE

RE = 390,000  -59,900 - 684,000

RE = -353,800

Then we construct the Stockholders equity statement

(B)

net loss will be:

begining RE + income + dividend = ending RE

50,000 + income - 28,000 = -353,800

income= -353,800 +28,000 - 50,000 = -375,800 net loss as it is negative.
