Net Worth

One way to calculate your net worth is by subtracting your liabilities from your assets and adding your net worth to your assets. The equation to solve this problem is minus (liabilities) + (net worth) = net worth. For instance, if your assets are worth ten thousand dollars and your liabilities are twenty thousand dollars, you must add up your net worth to calculate your liabilities. Likewise, if your assets are worth one hundred thousand dollars and your liabilities are forty thousand dollars, you must multiply your net worth by forty thousand to get your liabilities.
