Balance sheet

Hello I was wondering if someone could explain what happens to the money a share holder has invested.
If for example they have put 80,000 into a failing business to bank role it, this will show on the balance sheet as a liability, but does the shareholder just get repaid once there are some profits? If so what are the accounting entries for this?

BS
01. When you put the money
DR: Bank
CR: Directors loan
02. When you draw the money

What Emthi said is only true if the shareholder is also a director.0
-
Depends whether the funds are being lent or whether it is a purchase of shares/loan notes/debentures..0
-
If shares, whether there are sufficient funds on winding up/dissolution to pay back the shares in full.0
