Hi!

I have a Professional corporation (P Corp) of which I'm the sole shareholder.  The P Corp receives distribution from my employer which deducts the premiums to be paid to the Insurance company (dental, life, invalidity).  The invalidity, for tax purposes, needs to be paid by me personally and therefore I need to reimburse the P Corp for the deduction. I have recorded the income with matched transactions and recorded the gross amount in Income and the deductions into expenses-Insurance.  I would like to make the proper entries to confirm the repayment to the P Corp through a debit of the Shareholder's contribution account.  Your input is more than welcome! Thanks and have a great day!
