(d) $6,000

Explanation:

The computation of the total liabilities is shown below:

Total liabilities = Office equipment purchased - cash paid

= $10,000 - $4,000

= $6,000

The remaining amount would reflect the note payable which is come under the liabilities accounts which is shown in the balance sheet.

The other information which is given in the question is not related to the liabilities account. Hence, we ignored it.
