    First let us identify if the asset is a gain or loss. An asset is a gain if it contributes to the banks overall finance while it is a loss if it is a cost directly or indirectly.

    Deposits of $300 million = Gain (+)

    Reserves of $20 million = Gain (+)

    Purchased government bonds worth $300 million = Loss (-) - - - > This entails cost

    Selling bank’s loans at current market value of $600 million = Gain (+)

    Therefore adding up everything to get the banks net worth:

    Stealth banks net worth = $300 M + $20 M - $300 M + $600 M

    Stealth banks net worth = $620 million
