Thus equity represent the equivalentvalue of inputs which the company must not provide goods or services to a third party. The concept of capital is synonymous with net assets or equity of the company. In the same time, the capital of the company can be addressed through the other two concepts: maintaining financial capital and maintaining physical capital. The selection of one of the two variants has to be realized by the company starting from information users necessities.
