Explanation:

Total Asset has been increase by 20.24% and it is net increase by both current and non current assets. In equity section there is an increase in the common stock by 40.70% which indicate there is an issue of stock in 2020. The retained earning is decreased significantly which shows either there is a loss net loss this year or any dividend payment which decrease the retained earning as compared to 2019. There is also an increase in total liability, the major contribution to this increase is of Long term liabilities which is significantly increased by 55.5%. I think it might be a reason for if there is a net loss in 2020 which reduces the retained earning in the form of interest expense which is also increased.

um sure

it is a i took the test.
