Answer: B. increase to $209,000;increase to $209,000

Explanation:

If he uses that money to pay off his mortgage, his wealth would increase to $209,000 if he puts that money in his checking account, his wealth would increase to $209,000.

A person's wealth is calculated by deducting their liabilities from assets. In this case Jordan's wealth is;

= 10,000 + 200,000 + 1,000 + 2,000 - 100,000 - 3,000 - 1,000

= $109,000

If he pays off the Mortgage his debt will reduce by $100,000 which will increase his wealth to $209,000.

If he puts the money in his checking account, his assets will increase by $100,000 which will bring his wealth to $209,000 as well.
