Original shareholders would prefer internal growth. With internal growth, the value of the original shareholder's investment increases. For example, if the company is currently $1MM and (through internal growth) the company is now worth $2MM, an original shareholder owning 10% of the company now has shares worth $200K instead of $100K. Alternatively, if the move to $2MM is fuel by a capital infusion, the original shareholder's shares will only be worth $100K as the original shareholder will now only own 5% of the company. Of course, this is a very simplistic example which ignores any increase/decrease in share value between the original investment date and new infusion date, etc. However, you should get the point.

How do I account for inventory that comes directly from a Shareholder - I have set up a shareholder inventory account but do not know what the other side of the entry should be. This is a corporation?

It depends. What is the shareholder getting in return? Is payment expected? Is stock being issue? The specific inventory asset probably doesn't need to be identified separately as shareholder inventory. If there is no stock or repayment expected then it should probably go to the Equity Account "Paid in Capital". But, this is a good question to ask your CPA.
