    Hi Motorclassvehic, 

     

    Thank you for your post. I'd like to extend you a warm welcome to the community forum. I hope you find it a valuable resource.

     

    In this case, I recommend speaking to your accountant, as this task needs further assistance from an accountant. However, I'll provide you with this article: General Journals, which has detailed information on recording journals. 

     

    I hope this helps! Please let me know if you require any further assistance. I'm here to help. 

     

    Cheers,

    Princess

    Depends on the type of Entity ie Sole Trader or Company.

     

    For a Sole Trader, I have 2 ledgers - Motor Vehicle Expenses say 62000 and MVE Personal say 62001 

     

    A Journal is raised Dr Owners Drawings  N-T  Cr MVE Personal   GST

     

     

    For a Company, an Income Account is created eg MV Contribution by Director  GST

     

    A Journal is raised Dr Directors Loan  N-T   Cr MV Contribution by Director

    There is a box on the Company Tax Return for Contributions by Director

     

    The above is based on no deposit to the Bank Account by the Business Owner.

     

    Always best to converse with your Tax Accountant.
