Total Assets: Proportional Consolidation vs Equity Method helpful, remember, why, question, free

I might be just really tired at this point. But one of the schweser mock exams mentioned that total assets will be higher with proportional than equity. I can’t rationalize why, thoughts?
Also if this question is blatantly obvious: remember to DIVIDE the option value calculated with binomial method by (1+risk free rate) . Hope this was helpful
