It's appear on the liability side because it's the result
of capital investment of a company and capital is a
libiality for business (because of business entity

return form it, thatwhy net profit become liability for
business, it is so because business have to pay this(net

Answer / prasanta
Profit is regarded as the lifeblood of the company and also
for the existence of business profit is the integral
part,so whenever a business man investing money into the
business he is always expecting returns for running his
business smoothly .As both owner and business both are
separate from each other that capital investment as well as
return from this became the liability of the business.
