To determine which of the following is not an example of safeguarding inventory, let's analyze each option: A) Storing inventory in restricted areas: This is an example of safeguarding inventory as it limits access to the inventory and reduces the risk of theft or damage. B) Using physical devices such as two-way mirrors, cameras, and alarms: This is also an example of safeguarding inventory as it provides an additional layer of security and monitoring. C) Matching receiving documents, purchase orders, and vendor's invoice: This is an example of safeguarding inventory as it ensures that the inventory received matches the purchase order and vendor's invoice, reducing the risk of inventory discrepancies. D) Returning inventory that is defective or broken: This is not an example of safeguarding inventory. Returning inventory that is defective or broken is a process of inventory management, but it does not directly relate to safeguarding inventory. Therefore, the correct answer is D) returning inventory that is defective or broken.
