Answer:

d.$75,952 decrease

Explanation:

We simply use the Accounting Equation to determine the period's change in total liabilities.

So, the Accounting Equation states :

Assets = Equity + Liabilities

also

Assets - Equity = Liabilities

therefore,

($49,928) - $26,024 =  Liabilities

(- $75,952) = Liabilities

conclusion

The period's change in total liabilities is $75,952 decrease
