why profits are shown as liability and loss as asset in
balance sheet?

Answer Posted / giri

Profits are liability for the company because shareholders
are having the right on those profits. So, it is shown in
the assets sides of B/s. But loss can be shown as the
assets side of the B/s if we can capitalise those losses in
future years or If we are unable to reduce the paid-up
capital as per MOA then we show losses in the asset side.
