A statement of stockholders' equity generally includes a reconciliation of the beginning and ending balances of all accounts that appear in the stockholders' equity section of the balance sheet, such as common stock, additional paid-in capital, retained earnings, and treasury stock. It shows how changes in these accounts, such as share issuances, share repurchases, dividends, and net income, have affected the overall equity position of the company over a period of time.
