Inventory control is important for all businesses, but it is particularly important if the business has products like food or flowers, otherwise known as what kind of products?

A. Perishable
B. Non-perishable
C. Expendable
D. Organic

A. Perishable

The correct answer is A. Perishable products.

To determine the correct answer, we need to understand the definition of "perishable" and consider the examples provided (food and flowers).

Perishable products are the ones that have a limited shelf life and can spoil or deteriorate quickly if not properly stored or handled. They can be easily damaged by environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, or exposure to air.

Food and flowers are classic examples of perishable products. If not managed effectively, the inventory of these products can become outdated, wasted, or spoiled, leading to financial losses for the business.

In contrast, non-perishable products (option B) are items that have a longer shelf life and do not deteriorate quickly. Examples of non-perishable products can be canned goods, clothing, or electronics.

Expendable products (option C) generally refer to disposable items that are consumed or depleted with use. These can include cleaning supplies, office materials, or certain medical supplies.

Organic products (option D) refer to items that are grown or produced using organic farming practices without the use of synthetic chemicals or genetically modified organisms (GMOs). While organic products may include food and flowers, not all perishable products are necessarily organic.

Therefore, the most accurate answer to the question is A. Perishable products.
