Direct issues are products that ______.

Direct issues are products that ______.

• A. go from receiving to production without going through storage
• B. go to storage before production
• C. are discarded
• D. are used for customers

Answer: (A)

Direct issues describe items that move straight from receiving into production, bypassing the storeroom. This happens when ingredients are needed immediately for a recipe or a production run, so they aren’t stored as inventory. Because they don’t enter stock, these items are charged directly to the production cost rather than being counted in storeroom inventory. If an item went to storage before production, that would be processed as an indirect issue, and discarding an item or using it for customers are different concepts from the flow of direct issues.
