Stock holder's equity in 2017 is $1,680,000

Explanation:

Given:

Common stock = $600,000

Paid in capital = $800,000

Retained earnings = $350,000 that is (200,000 + 150,000)

Stock holders' account credited = 600,000 + 800,000 + 350,000

= $1,750,000

Treasury stock cost = $50,000

Unrealized loss on non-current marketable equity securities = $20,000

Total stockholders' account debited = 50,000 + 20,000

= $70,000

Balance of stockholders' equity as on 31 December 2017 = 1,750,000 - 70,000

= $1,680,000
