This transaction affects two accounts ..i.e., creditors a/c and cash a/c... where creditors a/c being a personal a/c and cash a/c being a real a/c
As Per the golden rules of accounting when it comes to Personal account.."Reciever should be debited and Giver should be credited".. creditors being at the recieving end.hence should be debited to that extent...where as for real account "What comes in should be debited and what goes out should be credited" ...since we are paying and cash is going out..cash a/c should be credited to that extent....

So the Journal entry will be

Creditor's a/c. Dr. 20000

To Cash a/c. 20000

(being Cash paid to creditors)

Hope this helps!
