Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the journal entry for opening a new overdraft (loan) account. When an overdraft facility is established, no immediate entry is made. The accounting entry is only recorded when the overdraft limit is actually utilised, either by making payments from the account or by depositing funds into it. It's highlighted that the overdraft limit itself is an off-balance sheet item.
