    net income during 2019 = $109,045

    Explanation:

    total stockholder equity 2018 = assets - liabilities = $293,500 - $79,245 = $214,255

    total stockholder equity 2019 = assets - liabilities = $497,512 - $177,212 = $320,300

    change in equity from 2018 to 2019 = $106,045

    $33,000 can be explained by additional capital invested, and the remaining $73,045 corresponds to change in retained earnings

    change in retained earnings = net income - dividends distributed

    $73,045 = net income - $36,000

    net income = $109,045
