441 (shareholders, uncalled capital).
In the case of an appeal for unpaid capital, account 1001 is debited by the amount called by the credit of the

account 442, or if there is total and immediate release by the debit of the concerned account in class 4
ou de la classe 5.
In the case where the loan for establishment funds is repaid by annuities, account 1010

repaid portion of the loan.
In other cases (reimbursement lower than the year's depreciation) account 1016 (share
remaining to be refunded from the loan) is debited by the
debit of account 8331 for an amount equal to the reimbursed sum and account 130 (reserve for
repayment of the loan) is credited by the debit of account 8330 in an amount equal to the
sum, which, in the year, has been amortized without being repaid. At the end of the loan the account
1010 is credited by the debit of account 130 while account 1016 is settled by account 56.

concerns insurance companies that manage on behalf of third parties (in particular of
insurance institutions) securities belonging to them and which have committed to respond to
all or part of the depreciation possibly suffered by these securities; to the extent that this
guarantee comes into play, insurance companies constitute the provision in question by debit
of the count 87.
Other provisions for losses and charges are created or adjusted through accounts 68 and
698 when they relate to the exploitation, by the debit of account 835 when they do not relate to
not the exploitation or when they have an exceptional character, finally through the game of accounts 7850,

To restore in the class 6 accounts the exact amount of the expenses related to
the fiscal year, these accounts must be regularized at the end of the fiscal year, by debiting account 480 and
by crediting account 470.
At the start of the following fiscal year, the entries made to these accounts 480 and 470 are against-
charged to the accounts concerned of class 6. However, companies can also debit
directly the account 470 when the actual payment of the charges to be paid and credit account 480

Companies that deem it appropriate can activate accounts 470 and 480 at the end of each
accounting period and not just at the end of the fiscal year.

83. Allocations for the period to provisions accounts outside of operations or exceptional and of
regulatory reserves.
Only those allocations to reserves from account 11 go through account 831, which (in contrast
those carried out by the debit of account 88) are not within the exclusive competence of
the general assembly.
Account 833 is debited from allocations to regulatory reserves (account 13) which are a
charge de l'exercice, selon les textes en vigueur, mais qui ne sont pas directement liées à
the exploitation.
Account 835 is used to make allocations to provisions for losses and charges (account 15).

The result of the foreign exchange operations (841, 846) is broken down into gains and losses on disposals or
on the conversion of foreign currencies, insofar as the relative importance of these two
éléments justifie une telle ventilation. Le compte 842 est un compte de calcul qui sert à remplir les
tax tables required for determining the results on disposals. It works in the following way
next:
it is debited, through the credit of the concerned asset account, by the amount of the original value
from this element;
- it is debited (in the case of a capital gain) or credited (in the case of a capital loss), for a balance by the credit of 845 or
the flow rate of 840.
Account 843 records on its debit, by the credit of the accounts concerned from classes 4 or 5, the
subsidies granted by the company that do not have the nature of operating expenses.
The balance grants received are the grants that would be granted by the State, the
public authorities or third parties, depending on the results of the companies that benefit from it.

reserve account. The balance, if it exists, is transferred to account 12 'retained earnings'.
The amounts intended by decision of the general assembly to be returned to the members of
mutual companies, mutual associations and their unions, and agricultural mutuals,
are debited to account 88 during the allocation of results.
If the terms of the rebate quantum and schedule are set by the decision of the assembly.

If the terms of the rebate are not established, the amounts intended to be refunded are
credited to account 115 'optional reserves'. When a subsequent decision of

Class 0 accounts are kept in double entry like the general accounting.
To do this, we use, within each main account, the sub-account whose
number ends with 9 as a counterpart to all other sub-accounts and sub-
accounts. For example, account 009 is the counterpart of accounts 000 and 001.
This account reflects the company's situation in relation to third parties who may become debtors.
Account 01 expresses the different aspects of the company following the commitments made towards
the third parties or resulting from legal provisions. To this end, each element includes three columns:

In the second column, the probable amount of cash outflow in case of a game is recorded.

actually honor its commitment.
