Yes, an owner's drawing account is a capital account. However, the drawing account is expected to have a debit balance, whereas the owner's main capital account is expected to have a credit balance.The drawing account will have a debit balance for two reasons. First the draw or withdrawal by the owner reduces the capital account. Second, because each transaction involves a debit and a credit, and because a withdrawal of cash requires a credit to the Cash account, the owner's drawing account will need a debit for the same amount.At the end of the accounting year, the debit balance in the drawing account is closed by transferring the debit balance to the owner's capital account.
