Equity

What is Equity?

Equity represents the value of an owner's interest in the business, calculated as assets minus liabilities.

Explanation

Equity reflects:

The owner’s investment in the business
Retained earnings (profits reinvested back into the business)

A growing equity balance signals financial health and long-term sustainability.

Practical Example of Equity

If a company owns £300,000 in assets and has £100,000 in liabilities, its equity is £200,000.
