The balance sheet provides the values needed in the equity equation: Total Equity = Total Assets - Total Liabilities. Where: Total assets are all that a business or a company owns.
Shareholders' Equity = Total Assets – Total Liabilities Take the sum of all assets in the balance sheet and deduct the value of all liabilities.
The BVPS is calculated by dividing a company's common equity value by its total number of shares outstanding: For example, assume company ABC's value of common equity is $100 million, and it has shares outstanding of 10 million. Therefore, its BVPS is $10 ($100 million/10 million).
To calculate ROE, divide the company's net income by its average shareholders' equity. Because shareholders' equity is equal to assets minus liabilities, ROE is essentially a measure of the return generated on the net assets of the company.
Shareholders Equity = Total Assets – Total Liabilities.
ROE = Net Profit Margin x Asset Turnover x Equity Multiplier. ROE = (Earnings Before Tax ÷ Sales) x (Sales ÷ Assets) x (Assets ÷ Equity) x (1 - Tax Rate)
A 20% equity stake means you own 20% of a company. This means you have a right to 20% of the company's profits and assets. If the company were to be sold, you would be entitled to 20% of the proceeds.
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.
And remember, equity is expensive. Giving someone a 5% stake, means that that party owns 5% of your firm's net worth and profits forever!
