In this video, Jason Watt discusses the often misunderstood concept of shareholder loans, attributing the confusion to the accounting profession. He explains that a shareholder loan represents a balance sheet item indicating whether a corporation owes money to a shareholder (generally positive) or the shareholder owes money to the corporation (generally negative, with some exceptions). Watt points out that the shareholder loan account is poorly understood because it lacks clarity on who owes what. He emphasizes that this video is purely educational and not intended as tax advice. An example illustrating these points will follow in the tutorial.

How do I record a shareholder loan repayment?

To record a loan from the officer or owner of the company, you must set up a liability account for the loan and create a journal entry to record the loan, and then record all payments for the loan.

Is repayment of a shareholder loan a distribution?

In conclusion, any repayment of a shareholder loan by a company cannot be considered a distribution under the Companies Act, as the payment has a different origin than a distribution under sub-section (a) of the definition of the term distribution.

Is repayment of shareholder loan taxable?

In general, loan repayment is not considered a sale or exchange of a capital asset, and therefore is considered ordinary income. But if the loan is supported by a bona fide debt agreement, the shareholder will only need to pay capital gains taxes instead of the higher income tax rate on the money they are repaid.

Are loans repayments to shareholders considered income?

These are generally reported as an asset on the companys balance sheet (similar to a receivable). The IRS may be critical of shareholder loans and argue that payments made to shareholders should be reclassified as salary (which incurs payroll taxes) or as an equity transaction.

Can shareholder loan be treated as equity?

The corporation is allowed a deduction on interest on a shareholder loan, although the deduction is subject to a few limitations: The loan has to be treated as debt rather than equity for US federal income tax purposes.

Is part or all of the repayment of a reduced basis debt taxable to the shareholder?

Part or all of the repayment of a reduced basis debt is taxable to the shareholder. If a shareholder sells their stock, suspended losses due to basis limitations are lost. Any gain on the sale of the stock does not increase the shareholders stock basis.

How do I account for a shareholder loan?

Your shareholder loan balance will appear on your balance sheet as either an asset or a liability. It is considered to be a liability (payable) of the business when the company owes the shareholder. Youll see it as an asset (receivable) of the business when the shareholder owes the company.

What happens to shareholder loans when company closes?

Shareholder Loans Before dissolving the corporation, these loans need to be recovered so that creditors can be paid and distributions made. If there are mitigating circumstances such as the shareholder with the loan filing for bankruptcy, the corporation will forgive the loan.
