Answer:

a. $1.38 billion

Explanation:

total assets= total liabilities

total Liabilities = liabilities +shareholders fund

shareholders fund=common stock +retained earning as on the balance sheet date

retained earnings as on bs date= profit at the year-end- loss at the beginning of the year

=60-40= 20 million

shareholders fund =520+20

=540

total liabilities=840+540=1380million i.e 1.38 billion

therefore total asset=1.38 billion

Therefore option A is correct
