    Share capital not paid - debtor?

    Sorry if this sounds dumb, but here goes....

    I have just 1 share in my business priced at £1 which I have not officially purchased (I haven't paid the money into my business account) I'd like to know if this would be classed as a debtor on my abbreviated annual accounts to Companies House? Thanks folks.

      yes.


      This is on your balance sheet

      Called Up Share Capital Not Paid £1
      Other Assets £1,000
      Work In Progress £2,000
      Cash In Bank £20,000

      Creditors with repayment due within one year ( tax etc.) £5,000

      Total assets less current liabilities £18,001

      Then your Capital:

      Called Up Share Capital £1
      Retained Earnings £17,750
      Shareholder's Equity £17,751

      Longterm Liabilities
      Director's Loan Account £250
      Long-term Liabilities and Shareholders' Equity £18,001


      So the share capital balances out the debt.

      So that £1 share issued didn't create any money from thin air.....
