Profit & Loss Appropriation Account

In case of companies a Profit & Loss appropriation account is prepared in final accounts. Visual Catpro automatically opens a 'P&L: Appropriation A/c' when you specify a firm as 'Company' in Firm Setup. This account can not be opened manually.

Opening balance of P&L appropriation account is shown in this account. Net profit as per P&L account is transferred to this account. You should pass necessary journal entries for Reserves, Provision for Taxation etc. Closing balance of this account will be shown in Balance Sheet.
