Assessable Profit

  

Assessable profit is an individual's taxable income after expenses (like the amount the government will use for its assessment). This sum is found by adding all the taxable accounts, and then subtracting expenses, depreciation and charitable donations from the total. This will show the profit of the account, and therefore, how much is fair to base the tax on.
