Respuesta :

Answer:

Option (a) $7,386 increase

Explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Change in total liabilities = - $26,185 [negative sign depicts decrease]

Change in equity = $33,571

Now,

Total Assets = Total Liabilities + Total Equity

Thus,

Change in total assets = Change in total Liabilities + Change in total Equity

or

Change in total assets = - $26,185 + $33,571

= $7,386 [positive value depicts increase]

Hence,

Option (a) $7,386 increase
