Stock or inventory is an asset. It should be verified not just at the end of the year or period ( quarterly  or half yearly) but through surprise checks as well. Verification of stock means ensuring that it exists, the actual quanities match the quantities per books, the costing policy ( FIFO , Moving Average, etc.) is applied correctly  and consistetly,  etc. Stock verification also means observing any slow-moving or obsolete inventory, and making or adjusting the provision for slow-moving or obsolete inventory accordingly ( contra asset account). Therefore, stock verification should be conducted proactively and comprehensively, and not be limited to  quantities.or period-end. Moreover, stock verification means ensuring record-keeping is done properly, and the system of internal control over stock is adequate.
