Answer:

$660,000

Explanation:

The computation of the equity investment is shown below:

= (Common stock balance) + (Earnings × purchased shares ÷ Total outstanding shares) - (dividend × purchased shares ÷ Total outstanding shares)

= ($600,000) + ($400,000 × 200 shares ÷ 1,000 shares) - ($1,00,000 × 200 shares ÷ 1,000 shares)

= $600,000 + $8,0000 - $20,000

=$660,000
