it will make significat impact if the discrepanies are material
Depends on materiality of the issue.

Yes stock count discrepancies show the control weaknesses.
Whether these discrepancies will affect the auditors’ opinion or not will depend upon:
The Nature of the Stock
Value of the stock
Materiality of the amount
Nature of the default
It is absolutely True.Should be verified in stock on hand.It leads to closing stock on yearly finalization.
