Retained Earnings are the bottom line of the Income or P&L statement and are reinvested into the company to generate more revenue; after all the expenses have been deducted and dividends have been distributed. 

Retained earnings sometimes appears at the bottom of the income statement due to the shortness of the restained earnings statement.

Retained earnings are a company's accumulated profits that haven't been distributed to shareholders as dividends. These profits are frequently put back into the company through capital investments, debt reduction, or research & development.


Since retained earnings are a part of shareholder equity, the amount from one period to the next is shown on a company's balance sheet. However, because retained profits are determined as the difference between a firm's net income and dividends given to shareholders, they are also connected to the income statement of the company.
