What Net Worth Tracker does, with a checked example
Net worth is a balance-sheet snapshot: the value owned minus the amount owed. Enter assets and liabilities by category, record snapshots on different dates, and use the trend chart and milestone markers to compare totals over time. The tracker adds the asset balances and subtracts the liability balances; a negative result means the recorded debts exceed the recorded assets. The common surprise is that income and spending are not entered directly. They matter only after they change an asset or liability balance.
Worked example
A concrete input and expected output from the current implementation.
Input
Assets:
Cash: $2,000
Investments: $3,500
Liabilities:
Credit card: $500
Auto loan: $1,000
->
Expected output
Total assets: $5,500
Total liabilities: $1,500
Net worth: $4,000
The two assets total $2,000 + $3,500 = $5,500. The liabilities total $500 + $1,000 = $1,500, so net worth is $5,500 - $1,500 = $4,000.
