How to book Owner's initial cash contribution

General journal entry.

 

Debit to the bank account

Credit to an equity account.

   If it is a sole proprietorship, credit Owner Capital Account.

   If it is a partnership, credit the appropriate partner's Capital Account. You should have separate capital accounts for each partner.
