Management fee journal entries related to overdraft

Hello,
My company recently set up a $20,000 overdraft with the bank, at the following terms: 16% Interest APR, 1% Management Fee and 1% Commitment Fee. Upon set up of the overdraft, the bank immediately took the entire 1% Management Fee and 1% Commitment Fee from our Account.
Please how do I journalize this transaction?

Cr. Bank Overdraft A/c

Narration : Being Rs. .....credited by bank against Management Fee @ 1% & Rs. .....against commitment fees @ 1%

Thank you for your reply.

Quick question though, this entry does not reflect the reduction of our bank balance by 1% management fee. Shouldn't we credit "bank" instead of  "overdraft"?
