Not sure If you want to maintain stock issued : create an equity account and
the entries should be typically
Debit Cash or other item received
(shares issued x price paid per
share) or market value of item received
Credit Common Stock
(shares issued x PAR value)
Credit Paid in capital in excess of par value
(difference between value received and par value
of stock)
For capturing your own holding , you may need to create transaction affecting
your bank account and security holding. So the above transaction will be
modified to
Debit Cash or other item received
(shares issued x price paid per
share) or market value of item received
Credit Common Stock issued to public
(shares issued x PAR value)
Credit Paid in capital in excess of par value, issued to public
(difference between value received and par value of stock)
Credit Bank Account for your own holding value
(shares held x PAR value)
Credit Paid in capital in excess of par value, own holding
(difference between value received and par value of stock)

Subject: Re: [GNC] Owning stocks which are not publicly quoted - which account
type suits better?
Interesting question... as someone who's been intimately involved in some
gnucash code improvements, I have no idea how to account for "my own
company stock share".
Could anyone more qualified (and with knowledge of double-entry as it
applies to personal *and* own company (cf publicly traded company as
investment vehicle) books?
How would the usual company shares activity (eg stock split, dividend,
return of capital, notional distribution, etc) be recorded as?
