a. $4,0000

b. $275,000

c. $55,000

Explanation:

In this question, we apply the accounting equation which is shown below:

Total assets = Total liabilities + stockholder equity

a. The stockholder equity would be equal to

= Total assets - total liabilities

= $150,000 - $110,000

= $40,000

b. New liabilities = $170,000

And, the new stockholder equity = $105,000

So, the total assets = Total liabilities + stockholder equity

= $170,000 + $105,000

= $275,000

c. The change in total stockholder equity equals to

= Increased value of total assets - decreased value of total liabilities

= $35,000 - (-$20,000)

= $35,000 + $20,000

= $55,000
