    • A) After the prescribed period of retention

    • B) After one year

    • C) 5 years

    • D) 10 years

    Correct Answer
    A. D) 10 years
    Explanation
    Records under D. Disposal are destroyed after 10 years. This means that after a period of 10 years, these records are no longer needed and can be disposed of. The specific time frame of 10 years has been determined as the appropriate amount of time to retain these records before they are destroyed. This ensures that the records are kept for a sufficient amount of time for any potential needs or legal requirements, but are then disposed of to free up space and maintain organization.

    3. Records are filed

    • A) Vertically

    • B) Horizontally

    • C) Either vertically or horizontally

    Correct Answer
    A. A) Vertically
    Explanation
    Records are filed vertically because it is a common practice to store documents in a vertical position, such as in filing cabinets or shelves. This allows for easy access and organization, as each record can be easily identified and retrieved. Vertical filing also maximizes space utilization, as records can be stacked one on top of the other, making efficient use of storage areas. Additionally, vertical filing helps to prevent damage to the records, as they are less likely to be bent or creased when stored in an upright position.
