In theory, many assets are subject to taxes upon withdrawal. In the US, 
those taxes might be short term or long term capital gains (taxable 
accounts), or regular income (retirement accounts like 401k), or none if 
withdrawn after a certain age (Roth).

A balance sheet books taxes at they point they are recognized.

You may be looking for a tax-adjusted net worth assessment, which considers 
expected taxes. Investor <https://github.com/redstreet/fava_investor/> 
offers this in its asset allocation module

.
