    b. $1.61 million

    Explanation:

    The computation of assets value is shown below:-

    Data provided

    Cost of Assets = $2.3 million

    Annual depreciation = $230,000

    Total numbers of years = 3

    Total depreciation = $230,000 * 3

    = 690,000

    = 0.69 million

    Assets value = Cost of Assets - Total depreciation

    = $2.3 million - $0.69 million

    = $1.61 million

    So, Given Market Value = $1.75 million and as per accounting conventions, Recorded book value are assets.
