This question is not correct because total assets = total liabilities + total capital . But if we ignore that . The right answer is option C . So balance sheet equation is not true .

Return on assets = Net income / Total assets which is0.27

Return On Asset (ROA)= Net Income/Total Assets

since,

ROA= 154200/575000= 0.27

The correct answer is "c".
