    The total stockholder's equity at the end of the year will be $352,000.

    Explanation:

    The issue of common stock at $7/share = 14,000*$7=$98,000

    The issue of common stock at $8/share = 28,000*$8=$224,000

    The net income is $140,000.

    The dividends paid = $70,000.

    Purchase of treasury stock = 4000*$10=$40,000

    The total stockholder's equity

    =The issue of common stock at $7/share+The issue of common stock at $8/share+The net income-The dividends paid-Purchase of treasury stock

    =$98,000+$224,000+$140,000 - $70,000-$40,000

    =$352,000.
