你有多少资产,怎么算?

(2019-02-06 16:57:07) 下一个

Assets calculation:

Asset has two classes, one is called financial asset and the other called non-financial asset.  Financial asset includes stock, bond and cash which are very liquid.  Non-financial asset includes real estate, land, antique, arts and jewelries which are not easy to buy or sell in a moment of notice.  Adding all these assets together, you will have your total assets.

Total Assets = Financial Assets + Non-financial Assets

To calculate your net asset, you need to subtract your debts from your total assets.

Net Assets = Total Assets – Debts

People usually confuse about assets that don't generate incomes, and there are even some people who don't think that these are assets, like primary residence and cars.  Basically, anything you own which have values are assets.

For retirement planning, we usually only consider the assets that can generate incomes, like investment funds, bonds, rental properties, etc.

sefree28 回复 悄悄话 What about the 401k account? It's money that we cannot access short term and it's pre-tax. Do we consider 100% of it as our assets? Or do we only count a certain percentage of it as our assets?
