    DD Form 1577, Unserviceable (Condemned) Tag is the correct answer because it is specifically used to identify property that is unserviceable and uneconomical to repair. The term "condemned" suggests that the item has been deemed unfit for use and is no longer repairable. This form is used to mark and track such items in order to prevent their further use or repair attempts.

    An organizational refusal would be a customer’s responsibility if the

    • Property was damaged.

    • Customer failed to cancel the due-out.

    • Property delivered was an unsuitable substitute.

    • Quantity issued was in excess of what the customer ordered.

    Correct Answer
    A. Customer failed to cancel the due-out.
    Explanation
    If a customer fails to cancel the due-out, it means that they did not inform the organization that they no longer require the property or item. This could result in the organization preparing the property for the customer and incurring costs, only to find out later that the customer no longer needs it. Therefore, the organizational refusal in this case would be justified as it is the customer's responsibility to cancel the due-out in order to avoid unnecessary expenses for the organization.

    What protects items placed in open storage from wet ground conditions?

    • Concrete.

    • Drainage.

    • Steel mats.

    • Crushed stone.

    Correct Answer
    A. Drainage.
    Explanation
    Drainage protects items placed in open storage from wet ground conditions by providing a system to redirect water away from the storage area. It helps to prevent water pooling or seeping into the ground, which can cause damage to the items. Concrete, steel mats, and crushed stone may also provide some level of protection, but they do not specifically address the issue of wet ground conditions like drainage does.

    What storage factor is used when items with the slowest turnover rate are stored in areas farther from active stock processing areas?

    • Item quantity.

    • Item similarity.

    • Item popularity.

    • Item size and weight.

    Correct Answer
    A. Item popularity.
    Explanation
    When items with the slowest turnover rate are stored in areas farther from active stock processing areas, the storage factor used is item popularity. This means that the items that are less popular and have a slower turnover rate are stored in areas that are less accessible or further away from the active stock processing areas. By doing so, it allows for more efficient and convenient access to the items that are in higher demand and have a faster turnover rate, optimizing the storage and retrieval process.
