The capital for A Smart is $5,400

Capital is computed as :

Capital = Asset - Liabilities

First, we need to determine the Asset.

Asset = Motor vehicle + Premises + stock + cash in and + cash at bank

Asset = $2,500 + $4,500 + $1,000 + $150 + $650

Asset = $8,800

Also, we will determine the liabilities

Liabilities = Money owed + Loan

Liabilities = $600 + $2,800

Liabilities = $3,400

Recall that:

Capital = Assets - Liabilities

Capital = $8,800 - $3,400

Capital = $5,400

Therefore, the capital for A Smart is $5,400
