according to the accountaing equation 

total assets = capital + liabilites

150 = ?   +80

150 =70 +80

dont get confused with current assets and current liabilities because in total assets and total liabilites these two values are already included. The total amount of the equity is $70.

am i right?

Answer: $70.0

Assets = Liabilities + Equity

Equity = Total Assets - Total Liabilities

            =150.0 -80.0

            =70.0

its $70. i.e. Total assets less total liabilities. Assuming there are no accumulated losses included in Total Assets

30 is the equity....bcoz its the current liabilities. (Equity shares)
