    Liabilities must rise in 20 million up to a total amount of 90 million.

    Explanation:

    Accounting Equation Formula:

    Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity

    Assets = 170 million

    Liabilities + Owner's Equity = 70 million + 80 million = 150 million

    The difference is: 20 million. That is the extra amount that the company must borrow from outside sources, so liabilities will rise up to 90 million.
