owners contribution and LLC's taxable income

Cash basis accounting. Say the LLC has a CC used for expenses. Say the CC had $10k in expenses, and I overpay it with $10,500 from personal funds. The LLC reimbures me for $10,500.


*DR Prepaid Credit Card $500

*DR Credit Card $10,000

*CR Owner Contribution $10,500

I seek reimbursment for $10500 from the LLC.

*DR Owner Distribution $10,500

*CR Cash $10,500


Question:

1) The $10,500 went towards expenses the LLC incured, but I am confused on how this will reflect on my income statment as it simply appears I pay for the expenses and am reimbursed. Is the full $10,500 owners distribtuion an expense on the income statment lowering my net income?


2) For simplicity, say the LLC only has $200k revenue and $100k in CC expenses. I pay off $100k on the CC using personal funds. The LLC reimburses me. My taxable income wont be $200k, it will still be $100k, right?

owners contribution and LLC's taxable income

Taxable income is the same as net income on the P&L, total income less total expense.

 

When you pay down a CC, you are just paying down debt. That is not an expense. What you used the CC for is an expense.

 

No owners draw has no impact on your taxable income in a sole proprietor or a partnership.
