a) $14,600.

Explanation:

The computation of the company total assets are shown below:

= Cash balance + supplies balance + equipment balance

where,

Cash balance = investment amount + borrowed amount - paid amount for equipment

= $6,200 + $3,200 - $2,120

= $7,280

And, the other item values would remain the same

Now put these values to the above formula

So, the value would equal to

= $7,280 + $1,120 + $6,200

= $14,600
