• A. Breakable stock register
• B. Consumable stock register
• C. Permanent stock register
• D. Requirement register

Answer 1

Answer:

B. Consumable stock register

• The Consumable Stock Register is used to record items that are consumed or used up during lab activities, such as chemicals, small hardware items (pins, wires), and rubber tubes.

• These items are not fixed assets but essential supplies that need regular replenishment and careful tracking to avoid shortages or wastage.

• The register records quantity, purchase details, issue, and balance stock for consumable materials to maintain organized inventory control.
