I have a piece of property and it's purchase price was $550,000. I recorded it as a fixed asset within the business's journal with a credit for the Purchase Price and a debit for Loans from Shareholders.
I also have a note on the property for $350,00 which I have recorded as a decrease to the value of the property and an increase to the property loan.
Now I am trying to figure out how to record the payments made on the property. Some, of course, go to equity which would increase the property asset and some go to Interest expense.
I can't seem to get the fixed asset value to go up while the long term liability goes down. What am I doing wrong?
