If a company transferred temporarily restricted funds in the amount of $3,000 from
Investments to pay for additional arts and crafts supplies; how would I prepare the
Journal entries?

What are the journal entries for accounts payable.

Ex:
When an invoice is going to be post?

When an invoices paid?

When payment stopped? (after issuing a check)

When you purchase something on Credit the journal entry is:

Debit the appropriate Asset account for the amount. i.e. Supplies or Merchandise Inventory
Credit Accounts Payable for the amount

When the accounts payable account is paid the journal entry is:
Debit Accounts Payable for the amount
Credit Cash for the amount
