    C. $ 8,606 million

    Explanation:

    By the accounting equation you now that:

    Total Assets = (Total Liabilities + Owner's Equity)

    In this case it's

    $40,091 = $31,485 + $8,606

    It means that the company works with total assets, but it needs to finance these assets through liabilities (mainly suppliers of any kind) and equity, which is the money that the owner put in the company hoping to make a profit.
