    The total stockholders' equity at the end of 2021 is $250,000

    Explanation:

    In order to calculate the total stockholders' equity at the end of 2021 we would have to calculate the transactions relating to stockholders' equity times the $5 par value common stock as follows:

    stockholders' equity at the end of 2021=Issue of 30,000 shares*$5+Issue of 20,000 shares*$5

    stockholders' equity at the end of 2021=$150,000+$100,000

    stockholders' equity at the end of 2021=$250,000

    The total stockholders' equity at the end of 2021 is $250,000
