The Chester Corporation's Total Liabilities were $156.640 ($209,856 - ($46,866+$8,350)) million based on the basic accounting equation Asset = Equity + Liabilities. Cash did not include in the calculation because it has already consisted in the total asset amount. The Chester Corporation's total equity is the sum of its retained earnings and common stock.
