<u>Calculation of amount of stockholders' equity at the end of the year:</u>
At the beginning of the year, Morales Company had total assets of $816,000 and total assets increased $178,000 during the year, hence Total Assets at the end of the year shall be 816000+178000 = $994,000
At the beginning of the year, Morales Company had total liabilities of $526,000 and total liabilities decreased $82,000 during the year. Hence Total Liabilities at the end of the year shall be 526000-82000 = $444,000
Now we can calculate amount of stockholders' equity at the end of the year as follows:
Equity = Assets – Liabilities
= 994,000-444,000
= $550,000
Hence, the amount of stockholders' equity at the end of the year shall be <u>$550,000</u>

Answer:
The standard deviation of the returns on the stock is 15.56%(Approx).
Explanation:
Expected Return=Respective return*Respective probability
=(20.4*0.67)+(-12.7*0.33)=9.477%
probability Return probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2
0.67 20.4 0.67*(20.4-9.477)^2=79.93899243
0.33 -12.7 0.33*(-12.7-9.477)^2=162.3003786
Total=242.239371%
Standard deviation=[Total probability*(Return-Expected Return)^2/Total probability]^(1/2)
=15.56%(Approx).
