Both sides of balance sheet will tally exactly. Since any sort of earning is a liability to a firm you have to include retained earnings in the liability section to make the balance sheet tally.
Calculation of amount of retained earnings:
The amount of retained earnings is not given in the sum. Using the below formula we can calculate retained earnings
Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Retained earnings
There are two parts in the total stockholders’ equity: one is common stock and the other is retained earnings.
In order to find out the amount of retained earnings, the following calculation is done.
$574, 552 = ($67,855 + $36,454 + $223,125) + $150,000 + Retained earnings
$574, 552 = $327,434 + 150,000 + Retained earnings
$574, 552 = $477,434 + Retained earnings
Retained Earnings = $97,118
So, the firm had retained earnings of $97,118
