How to use "In the balance" in context?
In the balance is a phrase most often used in financial management and economics. It refers to a situation where two or more variables are in equilibrium, where their effects on each other cancel each other out. In common language, this means that the various factors - money, time, effort, resources - are balanced so that no individual element dominates.
The phrase can be traced back to early Greek mathematics and physics, where it was used to describe the equilibrium point of two masses in motion. A stable balance can be achieved when two forces are in equilibrium.
