24 June 2014 in profit and loss a/c only income and tax related to income will show. after tax profit is net income of business . after that you can do any thing with the profit. if management want to tfr the amount for company work then general reserve a/c

if they want to give dividend to the share holder then tfr to proposed dividend a/c
