I've got the cash necessary for my startup, but am considering
different ways to fund my business.

I can either pay in the capital, just transfer the cash from my
personal accounts to the business books in exchange for owner equity,
or I can loan the S corp the cash, in which case the business can
take a write off for the interest expense, and I'll claim interest
income on my personal return, right?

What other considerations are there in determining whether to
loan or "give" my new business capital?

Thanks in advance.
