What is Equity
What is Equity? Equity is a term used in accounting, in real estate and home-ownership, in investing, as well as in startup financing and valuation. The meaning of the term equity is very similar in the various areas where it is used, so it will be good to review all four of these to get the best understanding.
In accounting, equity is a term that you will find on the balance sheet. What you own is on the left: assets. What you owe is on the right: liabilities and equity. Equity is the book value of the shareholder capital. The accounting equation tells you that assets equal liabilities plus equity. That also means that equity equals assets minus liabilities.

How Labor Unions Have Impacted Workplace Equity in the U.S. | A Thread
Are we experiencing a ‘union boom?' We’re seeing strikes, negotiations, the works — all with the goal of leveling the playing field and creating workspaces that are inclusive. #AThread

Labor unions have played an essential role in shaping the American workplace, from securing the 40-hour workweek to fighting for better pay and workers' rights. Here's the history of unions, their challenges, and their resurgence in the age of social justice and workplace equity.
With the emergence of the 'union boom' happening in 2023 with strikes, negotiations, and organizing efforts across various industries, all have attempted to address the challenges that unions continue to face over the years, from corporate and political opposition to struggles with inclusivity.

Nicola, 28, Equity union member
“For the entertainment sector, low – or even no pay – is a huge issue. I’m an actress by profession, but I’m also an events manager, an office temp… whatever pays the bills. More and more jobs in my industry are casual and insecure. The only way to stand up to this is to organise and stand together. I see no better way to achieve this than within the trade union movement." Nicola, 28, Equity

What is Equity? Equity is a term used in accounting, in real estate and home-ownership, in investing, as well as in startup financing and valuation. The meaning of the term equity is very similar in the various areas where it is used, so it will be good to review all four of these to get the best understanding.
In accounting, equity is a term that you will find on the balance sheet. What you own is on the left: assets. What you owe is on the right: liabilities and equity. Equity is the book value of the shareholder capital. The accounting equation tells you that assets equal liabilities plus equity. That also means that equity equals assets minus liabilities.
Equity on a balance sheet goes up when a company is profitable: the net income for the year gets added to equity through retained earnings. Equity on a balance sheet goes down when the company is loss-making (losses “eat up” the equity), or when the company pays a dividend to its shareholders.
Equity in home-ownership works very similar to equity on the balance sheet. What we own is on the left: the house worth $500.000. What we owe is on the right: $400.000 of mortgage loan from the bank, and the owner of the house, Jim, has $100.000 of equity in the house. Equity in home-ownership is what a home is worth minus how much you owe to the bank.
Just like equity on the balance sheet of a company can go up or down, the equity that you have in your home can go up or down. If Jim is paying down the mortgage on his house by $50.000, then the amount of the loan outstanding will decrease and his equity in the house will increase. If the market value of the house increases, then Jim’s equity in the house will increase. Remember that equity is what a home is worth minus how much you owe to the bank. If the market value of the house decreases, then Jim’s equity in the house will decrease, or even become negative. Jim will need to have a conversation with the bank to make a remediation plan to get back to positive equity, or in the worst case scenario Jim might lose the ownership of the house and the bank will need to take a partial write-off of its outstanding loan.
Investing in #equity. Remember the example of the small manufacturing business that owned a machine, had a loan from a bank, and equity from one shareholder. What if we make that a big manufacturing business that owns lots of machines at different sites totaling $1 billion, has many loans outstanding totaling $800 million that are publicly traded in the bond market, and has many different shareholders as the certificates of ownership, the equity, is traded publicly as well. As an investor, you have the choice of buying bonds (which would have a predetermined interest rate, and has the machines as collateral), or the choice of buying stocks (which are perceived as having more downside risk as well as more upside potential). Invest in debt, or invest in equity.

Equity in a startup company. How do you put a “price” on what is essentially so far just an idea, that still has to be developed and will find many ups and downs along the way? The company does not have any assets, liabilities and equity yet. The financing and valuation depend on the estimate of the revenue, profit and cash flow that the business idea might bring in the future. A good way to learn about startup companies in the tech field is the comedy series “Silicon Valley”. What happens if the app you are developing turns out to have a great compression algorithm, you are courted by investors ready to fund you, and your friends and roommates suddenly become your employees while you become the CEO?
Having equity can be a great thing. Equity has potential risks as well as potential rewards. The term equity is used in accounting, in home-ownership, in investing, and in start-up financing and valuation. Probably the easiest metaphor to remember is equity in home-ownership: what a home is worth minus how much you owe to the bank.

Labor unions have played an essential role in shaping the American workplace, from securing the 40-hour workweek to fighting for better pay and workers' rights. Here's the history of unions, their challenges, and their resurgence in the age of social justice and workplace equity.
With the emergence of the 'union boom' happening in 2023 with strikes, negotiations, and organizing efforts across various industries, all have attempted to address the challenges that unions continue to face over the years, from corporate and political opposition to struggles with inclusivity.
People like Sara and David are helping to lead the charge, pushing for conditions that don't only benefit workers in specific fields, but that make waves across industries. David Madland, Senior Adviser at the American Worker Project, shares his insights into how unions impact the American economy. Sara Nelson, International President of the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA, AFL–CIO, discusses her pivotal role in improving wages and working conditions in the aviation industry.
Additionally, the Protecting the Right to Organize (PRO) Act, has become a a potential game-changer for workers' rights, which could ultimately lead to unprecedented union growth. Is the modern labor movement simply continuing the work of its forebears, or is it innovating collective bargaining for a new era? The stakes have never been higher.
