Entries in B/S for expenses done by director on behalf of the company

1989 views 2 replies

For Company (Pvt Ltd) expenses (Purchase entries - invoice in name of the company), the Director had paid from his personal account. But, the same was not reimbursed to him in same financial year. 

What are the correct accounting entries & under which head of balance sheet, the same should be shown?

Thanks!
