Tax on a directors loan

If I have a directors loan of £2000 which has not been paid back within 9 months and 1 day, in one financial year and proceed to pay the 32.5% Corporation tax on that loan...

Then, the next year, the loan has not been repaid, but has in fact grown to £2500...  In this year, do I have to pay tax on £500, or do I have to pay tax on £2500 - Baring in mind I already paid tax on £2000 the previous year.

All articles I have read state that I have to pay tax on the outstanding amount, but none of them have information on outstanding amounts that already attracted corporation tax which has been paid.

Thanks in advance.
