The answer is: Equity at the end of the year will be $123,000

Explanation:

At the beginning of the year the balance sheet was as following:

assets $195,000 liabilities $75,000

equity $ 120,000

Then during the year the income statement is:

total revenues $226,000 total expenses $175,000 net income $ 51,000 (this increases assets and equity)

If the owners withdrew $48,000, then cash and equity will decrease.

The ending balance for the year:

assets $195,000 + $51,000 liabilities $75,000

-$48,000 = equity $120,000 + $51,000 - $48,000 =

$198,000 $123,000
