"a) ...Your purchase of one is just an asset transfer transaction. When and if used to pay an expense* that transaction would be debit expense and credit this asset. The reason I put the asterisk is often the bank check is needed to purchase an expensive asset (car, house, art work, etc.) so the debit side would be for some fixed asset,not an expense.
