In the balance sheet net income is not treated as an asset, it is added to capital, however if one is to look a bit deeper into the the entire cycle net income would make up part of the current asset. Income from sales would increase your cash, bank of accounts receivables. Remember accounting is double entry and for every debit there must be a corresponding credit.

∙ 13y agoThe purposes of a company is to manage these assets (and liabilities) so that the assets increase in value relative to the liabilities. For example, generating csh by selling washing machines for a higher price than cost, while paying the bills.
Increases in assets increase net income, decreases reduce it. For liabilities it is the reverse: increases in liabilities reduce net income, and decreases increase it (doesn't happen often).
The income statement shows the revenues and expenses over the period.
