Answer:

Assets would increase by $ 2897

Explanation:

Total Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity

Decrease in Liabilities = $ 27,137

Increase in Owner's Equity = $ 30,034

Total Change =$ 30,034 - $ 27,137= $ 2897

As the assets must equal the liabilities and owner's equity so the total change in liabilities and owner's equity  must equal the change in assets.

In the above question the liabilities and owner's equity in total increase by $ 2897 so the assets must increase by $ 2897.
