Answer:

2013 Equity: 298,000

2014 Equity: 327,000

Explanation:

(A)

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

395,000 = 97,000 + Equity

395,000 - 97,000 = Equity

298,000 =  Equity

(B)

if asset increase by 65,000

and liabilities increase by 36,000

(395,000 + 65,000)  = (97,000 + 36,000) + Equity

460,000 = 133,000 + Equity

Equity = 460,000 - 133,000 = 327,000
