    Explanation:

    As with opening of petty cash fund, there is an exchange in the form of asset.

    The free cash is now divided in two parts, cash and petty cash.

    Both are assets and the closing balance of cash in balance sheet is aggregate of free cash and petty cash.

    Therefore, there is no impact in the total assets as now free cash is petty cash which is later added to free cash.
