A. \$[/tex]34,417
B. \[tex]$44,186
C. \$[/tex]78,603
D. \$98,820



Answer :

To determine the value of the veterinarian's liquid assets, we need to identify the assets that can be quickly converted to cash. Typically, liquid assets include investments and items that have a readily determinable market value. In this case, the relevant items are:

1. Investments: \[tex]$34,417 2. Car Value: \$[/tex]44,186

Liquid assets are the sum of these values. Therefore, the calculation is:

[tex]\[ \text{Liquid Assets} = \text{Investments} + \text{Car Value} = \$34,417 + \$44,186 = \$78,603 \][/tex]

Therefore, the value of the veterinarian's liquid assets is [tex]\(\$78,603\)[/tex].
