Explanation:

Journal entry: It is a recording of transactions in which one account is debited whereas the other account is credited. It follows double - entry accounting.

Moreover, it also follows the golden rule of accounting - debit the receiver and credit the giver, debit all expenses and losses & credit all income and gains, etc.

In this journal entry, the account payable balance would be decreased by $800 and along with it the cash balance is also decreased by $800 as cash is paid to the creditors
