How do you find owner's equity?

The relation between assets, liabilities and owner’s
equity is: Assets = Liabilities + Owner’s Equity.

So
Owner’s equity= Assets – Liabilities.

It is therefore
essential to calculate the assets and subtract the liabilities to arrive at the value of
the owner’s equity.

An asset is defined as anything which
has a value and which is owned by the owner. Assets
include:

• Current assets: cash, inventory, raw
  material, account
  receivables

• Investments: stocks,
  bonds, property, etc.

• Capital
  assets: Land, buildings,
  equipment

• Intangible assets.
  Patents, copyrights and other non-material
  assets

Liabilities
include:

• Current liabilities: short-term loans,
  accounts payable and any other liability that has to be paid within a
  year

• Long-term liabilities:
  long-term loans, mortgages, etc. which can be paid over a period that extends beyond one
  year

After calculating the assets and the
liabilities, subtract the liabilities from the assets, what you are left with is the
owner’s equity.
