Answer number 4 is correct, the main target here is to ensure that the amount at the counting are the same at the records. Then we should decide the methodology of this assertion through either with the Periodic Method inventory as to count all the items at the end of each period, Or Perpetual Method, which is counting quarterly up to the end of the year.

Kind Regards.

The primary and best method to match the inventory records with physical inventory in the store is to perform a periodic inventory count and that must be carried out by any other person who was not responsible for record keeping of it. in this we can ensure the inventory in good condition and that which is damaged and is not in resellable condition.
