Good day, I would like to recieve some information regarding my question, please.

My incorporation just finished the process of refinancing, and because of that I have some funds that I would like to invest in a construction company in Panama.

My question is; am I able to proceed with this transaction, and how do I do it right, in order to be safe towards the law?

Thanks in advance!

New Investment Partner

My company just took on a new partner. The partner is investing money into the company.

I need to post a large amount that has been put into our savings account.

Do I post to the capital under the new partner or is there a different procedure I should follow?

by: BB

When a new partner invests money into a company, it is typically recorded as a contribution to their specific capital account under the owner's equity section on the balance sheet.

Here's how you could record the transaction:

Debit (increase) your Savings Account (an asset account) for the amount of the new partner's investment. This reflects the increase in your company's assets due to the funds being added to the savings account.

Credit (increase) the new partner's Capital Account (an equity account) for the same amount. This indicates the new partner's equity investment in the business.

This records both the inflow of funds to your company and assigns the appropriate equity to the new partner. However, you should always consult with a certified accountant or financial advisor to ensure that you're following the correct procedures based on the specifics of your business and partnership agreement. Different businesses and agreements may require different accounting methods.

Trusts

by Nora
(Baltimore, MD)

We have set up a trust for a retarded child. We are not using the money out of it for her yet - it is just in the bank collecting interest. I am told that I have to fill out an income tax for for this trust each year. Can you tell me what form I need. I do have a tax number for her for this trust.

Thank you,
Nora
