    When 200 shares our issued and sold for $50 a share the stock holders equity increases by $10,000 (50*200). Because now stock holders own an extra 10,000 worth the stocks, so their equity increases by 10,000.

    When 75 shares are repurchased at $44 a share the stock holders equity decreases by 3,300 (75*44). Because Now stock holders own 3,300 worth of shares less, so their equity decreases by 3,300
