First you need to add your assets together i.e. cash, equipment, and buildings.

Since the accounting equation is:
Assets = Liabilities + Owners Equity so you can rearrange the formula to:
Owners Equity = Assets - Liabilities

So input your Assets and Liabilities amounts and solve for Owners Equity.
