Question

Karan has just been offered the position of a store manager. He has observed that his store has been facing a problem of shrinkage in the past months. How can Karan take responsibility for controlling shrinkage?
A.
ensuring the availability of sufficient merchandise at the store
B.
ensuring available stock via a computerized inventory tally
C.
evaluating the average sales per month
D.
informing the head office about store operations
E.
evaluating the performance of staff at the store

Answer 1

Answer: c

As store shrinkage is the loss of inventory that can be attributed to factors such as employee theft, shoplifting, administrative error, vendor fraud, damage, and cashier error, Karan would have to make sure there is enough products and keep track of the sales/stocks. Thus, I believe that it would be c, so Karan can keep track of the monthly sales. Feel free to let me know if I'm wrong!
