Answer:

Increase shareholder's equity

Step-by-step explanation:

When investors provide cash(capital) to a business through purchasing the company's shares, this increases the amount of their ownership hence increases the equity. Equity amount is recorded in the balance sheet. Another way a company raises capital is by borrowing debt which increases the amount of its liability.
