dear everybody,
this was a credit transaction, how come it goes in the general journal?!
is it because the Purchase Journal deals only with purchase of stock?
and,
if sundry creditors is a unit 4 thing, will this question get free marks?
and please be nice, i found this exam tricky 
Purchases journal is only used to record credit purchases of stock. Credit purchases of everything else other than stock go through the GJ.
Technically, it's not on the course but you're *supposed* to know how to do these kinds of transactions. I actually came across them in a few of the third party exams, and my teacher went over it the next day.
it was basically CR Sundry creditor xxx (no SL entry)
And I don't reckon they're gonna exclude this question from the course (it was 4 marks - only 1 of which goes to the Sundy creditor entry)
