    The answer is: equity will increase by $4,000

    Explanation:

    Since only one third of the contract has been fulfilled, then one third of the money received ($12,000 x 1/3) should be recognized as revenue. A revenue increase will result in a net earnings increase, which will result in an adjustment of the balance sheet's equity.
