If the owner intends to pay back the money: Dr. Accounts Receivable and Cr. Cash.
If the owner does not intend to pay it back but the company owes the owner money: Dr. Loan/P to Owner and Cr. Cash
If the owner does not intend to pay it back and the company does not owe the owner money:
Dr. Retained Earnings and Cr. Cash This would either be considered a dividend or a distribution, depending on the structure of the company (corporation vs. partnership vs. LLC vs. sole proprietorship)
Alternately, it could be treated as Net Pay. In that case, you would "gross-up" the amount charged to Salary Expense as a Debit and Credit Payroll Taxes Payable and Credit Cash for the amount taken.

When the owner issues a check to pay personal bills, it is termed a "draw" because it represents an owner's withdrawal of funds from the business for personal use. This transaction reduces the owner's equity in the business but does not affect the company's income statement, as it is not considered an expense of the business. Instead, it is recorded as a reduction in the owner's capital account on the balance sheet. Essentially, draws reflect the owner's right to take money from the business for personal needs.

No. A founder, found the company. (or started it.) This would never change. An owner, owns the company. A founder could be an owner if he started the company with his own money.

What is the difference between a regular company and a limited company?
I can only answer from a UK perspective, but here the difference is mainly to do with ownership. A 'normal' company is classed as a sole trader and so the money of the company and the owner are seen as the same. If the company gets into debt or is sued, the money can be taken from the company and the owner. So the owner could lose their house, personal savings etc. The benefit of being a sole trader is that the legal requirements are pretty straight-forward so it is easier to keep accounts and complete tax returns. A limited company means that the company and the owner are separate. Debts can only be paid from the money the company has - the owner cannot lose their private property. The downside to a limited company is that it is often more expensive to run, as there are more legal requirements, such as accounts need to be published and audited. It can be more tax efficient to run a limited company though.
