Equity Shares = Equity Capital / Face Value per Share For example, if a company generates ₹5,00,000 from shares with a face value of ₹10, the calculation is 5,00,000/10, yielding 50,000 equity shares. This metric signifies the total ownership units issued by the company.
You can come down to Common Equity by multiplying outstanding common stock by the face value of the stock to get the desired figure. If a company has 10,000 shares with a face value of $5/per share, its common equity will be $50,000.
This figure is calculated by subtracting total liabilities from total assets; alternatively, it can be calculated by taking the sum of share capital and retained earnings, less treasury stock. This metric is frequently used by analysts and investors to determine a company's general financial health.
