Profit is gross income less all expenses. However, the profit may not be present in the form of cash with a company as some amounts will be due from the customers in the form of bills receivables. This is because we always make statements as on a particular date, usually the annual closing. Hence, the saying a sale is not complete till the money is received. Madhavan T Gopalachary

Profit and cash can be the same thing. You can have profit on the books and not have the cash because it can be tied up in various processes. Your actual disposable income is the most important.
