An entry to transfer net income into owners' capital is done to account for the profits earned by the business and allocate them to the owner's equity. This ensures that the owner receives credit for their share of the earnings and reflects the increase in their ownership interest in the business. By transferring the net income into the owners' capital, it allows for the accurate representation of the overall financial position of the business.
