Final Answer :
D
Explanation :
Transferring a personal automobile to a company is not a transaction that would typically be recorded in any of the specialized journals such as purchases, cash payments, or cash receipts. Instead, it would be recorded in the general journal, which is used for all other types of transactions that don't fit into the other journals.
