Answer:

A. $115.000

Explanation:

The assets and liabilities in compliance with the GAAP (historical cost concept) are reported on the balance sheet at their initial cost, (cost at purchasing the asset) not according to market value as time-to-time shifts in market market value, if on the balance sheet you report market value, the arithmetic precision is compromised.

The assets are therefore always reported according to the initial costs or historical costs on the balance sheet. No market valuation must be reported
