Accounting...Where to place Freight In?

If i'm understanding this properly you were the buyer and the terms of the contract were F.O.B. shipping point. Northern Transit Co. is billing you directly for shipping the merchandise. If my understanding to this point is correct then your entry should be in the cash payments journal. Unless I am terribly confused this journal includes any entry in which cash left your hands, whether it be for freight, supplies, (or even paying a payable: debit accounts payable; credit cash).
