Simply put: you don't show investor payback on a balance sheet. By definition, the balance sheet is a statement of financial position; a snapshot of the company's financial situation at a particular moment in time. Nor should you show the investor payback on the Cash Flow, P&L or Changes in Stockholder Equity Statements. We recommend showing the investor payback as a footnote to the P&L Statement, the Cash Flow Statement as well as a paragraph in the text of your document. In the paragraph, we recommend explaining 'how' you calculated the payback, what assumptions you used and over what period of time.

Wife and father. You may have some vested rights if you can show that you made payments from your sole checking account, but it may not get you far in owning equity. Clarification: Are we speaking about deeds? Land ownership? If wife and father are "on the title" then it is assumed they are on the deed. Then they would be the owners. Neither would need to show they made any payments.
