Net-Worth How does it work?
When it's enabled for the Combined accounts mode, it projects all your accounts, including both debts and assets. This ensures an accurate representation of how your net-worth will change over time. The setup is integrated into the Loans and Assets configuration.
For instance, when you create a mortgage or car loan plan, you set the "Transfer to" field to your Lender account, where your debt is recorded. Conversely, when you add an Asset (like a car or house), there isn't a transfer option. Instead, under "Optionals," you'll find a "Lien at" field, which should again be linked to your Lender.
For assets, you can also set up appreciation or depreciation rates. For a house, the national average appreciation is about 5%, while a car typically depreciates (a good rule of thumb is around -10% annually).
With these settings, you can more accurately project your net worth, taking into account asset appreciation/depreciation as well as the principal and interest payments on your loans.
