Answer:

A) Taking a physical inventory involves actually counting, weighing, or measuring each kind of inventory on hand

Explanation:

The physical inventory involves an actual physical count only.  During the physical counting, the counter employs analytical procedures to verify that the actual physical account and the records in the financial statement match. The physical count may include a review of the company's inventory procedures.

The counting process follows some accepted best practices, which include.

  1. Two-person count teams
  2. Pre-numbered tickets and unique sequencing
  3. Halt issuing and receiving of products during the inventory count
  4. Separation of customer products
  5. A master count sheet that is controlled only by the manager of the inventory
