What would the journal entry be if a company incurred an expense?

There may be more than one way to record an expense. The easiest journal to think about is when you've used cash to pay for the expense. In that case, you would debit an expense account and credit cash. But, if you've received the benefit of an expense but have not yet paid for it the debit would still be the expense account but the credit would be a liability account. Of course, there are times when cash flows but no expense is recognized such as investments in property, plant and equipment. After that expenditure is made you would recognize periodic expenses in the form of depreciation. That would be a debit to depreciation expense and a credit to accumulated depreciation.
