Work from fund assets to investor value
Net asset value is the value of a fund’s assets after subtracting its liabilities. Dividing that amount by the number of units gives the net asset value per unit.
NAV per unit = (Assets - Liabilities) ÷ Units outstanding
For example, a fund with $12 million in assets, $2 million in liabilities, and 1 million units has a NAV of $10 per unit.
