(a)		Prepare a tabular summary that includes the January 1, 2017, balances. Do not include the beginning balance in Retained Earnings in the tabular summary.
(b)		Record the 2017 transactions in the tabular summary.

Prepare the stockholders’ equity section of the balance sheet at December 31, 2017. Include 2017 net income of $255,600 as an increase to the January 1, 2017, Retained Earnings.

Calculate the payout ratio, earnings per share, and return on common stockholders’ equity. (Note: Use the common shares outstanding on January 1 and December 31 to determine the average shares outstanding.) (Round earning per share to 2 decimal places, e.g. $2.66 and all other answers to 1 decimal place. 17.5%.)
