No. A Balance Sheet consists of Assets = Liabilities + Owner's Equity. Owner's Equity is increased by profits and contributed capital and is decreased by losses and capital withdrawals.

Example of a very simplified Balance Sheet -

Assets 150,000

Liabilities 50,000

Owner's Equity 100,000

Total 150,000

No. Capital is what the owner invested in the property originally, where as equity is the difference between the buying price & the selling price.

EG.

buy a home for $50K (using your own CAPITAL)

sell the home for $200K = $150K Equity.
