Ltd Company owns 25% in a Freehold mortgaged residential property owned by Director/51% Shareholder
I am a 49% Shareholder in a Ltd UK Company (do not agree to be a 49% shareholder).
The entry in Ltd company accounts within Tangible fixed assets reads 'The company owns 25% in a Freehold property owned by NAME, a director of the company.'
The Ltd Company paid the cash deposit and the stamp duty to enable the purchase with the Director taking out a personal residential mortgage for the remainder of the purchase price.
This was before pre 2008 so you can see where I am going with this. The value of the property is now much less and is being Sold. If it is the Director/51% Shareholder's intention not to pay back any of the Ltd Company's 25% of the sale price but instead use these funds to clear his personal mortgage how should this transaction be accounted? Director Loan for him?
The accountant (since 2011) has indicated it will be accounted as a loss?
