    hi
    can someone please explain how do you get from

    capital=assets – liabilities

    to

    capital=opening net assets +profit- drawing

    thanks

    The first on is a snap-shot at any point in time.

    The second one is a ‘journey’: closing capital = opening net assets + profit – drawings.
    This explains how capital has changed over a period (note that opening net assets = opening capital)
