Computation of Miami Rivet's Total Stockholders' Equity:

Total Stockholders' Equity = Common Stock + Retained Earnings

Here,

Retained Earnings = Beginning Balance of Retained Earnings + Net Income-Cash Dividends Paid

= $11,200,000+ $3,000,000-$1,800,000

= $12,400,000

 

Total Stockholders' Equity = $5,000,000+$12,400,000 = $17,400,000

 

Note: As you have not provided information about Net income. So, i have assumed $3,000,000 for Net Income.
