My accountant takes our personal income tax refund straight from the ATO as part payment for his annual preparation and lodgement.

I would like to know the correct accounts to use (in Reckon) for company repayments to us.

Hope this makes sense,

Thanks,

Roland

    Hi Roland

    Depending on your entity type, personal transactions would normally be posted to either an equity account such as Drawings (eg Sole Trader) or a Shareholders Loan (Pty Ltd Company) Asset account. Some people create also subaccounts under these to track different things.

    In some cases, a Pty Ltd Company may also choose to track personal funds via a liability account, particularly if there are considerable amounts that the owner has drawn from the business.
