* Now lets solve the problem

# 2005

- Assets: home valued and car valued

∵ Home valued at $200,000

∵ Car valued at $25,000

∴ Assets = 200,000 + 25,000 = $225,000

- Liabilities: mortgage and car loan

∵ Mortgage of $30,000

∵ Car loan of $8,000

∴ Liabilities = 30,000 + 8,000 = $38,000

# 2009

- Assets: home valued , car valued and boat valued

∵ Home valued at $180,000

∵ Car valued at $18,000

∵ Boat valued at $20,000

∴ Assets = 180,000 + 18,000 + 20,000 = $218,000

- Liabilities: home equity loan and personal loan

∵ Home equity loan of $18,000

∵ Personal loan of $5,000

∴ Liabilities = 18,000 + 5,000 = $23,000

∵ Assets in 2005 is $225,000

∵ Assets in 2009 is $218,000

∵ Liabilities in 2005 is $38,000

∵ Liabilities in 2009 is $23,000

∴ From 2005 to 2009, both assets and liabilities decreased

the answer is From 2005 to 2009, both assets and liabilities decreased (A)
