THE BALANCE SHEET
What you own and what you owe.
How net worth is calculated
- Add the current value of cash, investments, property, and other assets.
- Add debts such as mortgages, student loans, cards, and other liabilities.
- Subtract total liabilities from total assets.
- Project each balance using its chosen growth or interest assumption.
Worked example
If assets total $250,000 and liabilities total $90,000, current net worth is $160,000. The projection then applies each balance’s rate independently.
Assumptions and boundaries
- Entered balances are current estimates rather than appraised or guaranteed values.
- Growth rates remain constant for the projection period.
- Inflation-adjusted results use the single inflation rate you provide.
Important limitation: The projection excludes taxes, transaction costs, contributions, withdrawals, and market volatility unless reflected in the balances you enter.

Frequently asked questions
- Should a home be included in net worth?
- You may include its estimated market value as an asset and the outstanding mortgage as a liability. For retirement planning, also consider whether the equity is spendable.
- Is a negative net worth always a problem?
- Not necessarily. Student loans or a new mortgage can make net worth negative temporarily; trend, cash flow, interest cost, and repayment capacity provide needed context.
