How to calculate Net Asset Value and saving ratio


2 Answer(s)


Hi,
If you're referring to mutual fund NAV, then it's calculated as below.
NAV = (Total value of assets-liabilities)/No. of outstanding units.
Liabilities here may refer to expenses incurred in managing the fund.
Saving ratio = savings/income.

Also, have a look at a little detailed definition.
NAV = (Market Value of All Securities Held by Fund + Cash and Equivalent Holdings - Fund Liabilities) / Total Units Outstanding
Let's assume at the close of trading yesterday that a particular mutual fund held Rs.1,05,00,000 worth of securities, Rs.20,00,000 of cash, and Rs.500,000 of liabilities. If the fund had 10,00,000 units outstanding, then yesterday's NAV would be:
NAV = (Rs.1,05,00,000 + Rs.20,00,000 – Rs.5,00,000) / 10,00,000 = Rs.12.00
A fund's NAV will change daily as the value of a fund's securities, cash held, liabilities, and the number of units outstanding fluctuate.
