The net income for the current year is $170,790

Explanation:

The computation of the net income is shown below:

= Increase in cash + Decrease in Accounts Payable + Increase in Accounts Receivable + Increase in Bonds Payable + Increase in inventory - Increase in common stock - Decrease in investments - Increase in paid-in capital + dividend declared

= $70,360 + 52,610 + $48,300 + $84,270 + $133,900 - $134,700 - $47,730 - $13,220 + $23,000

= $170,790
