2) What are the registers that has to be maintained and how it has to be checked to know whether proper controls are there?

3) What are the controls are there for purchases are concerned?

4) Should anything be affixed in the purchase invoice and whether is shd be serially numbered?

5) Please explain me stage by stage how purchase activities in a manufacturing company is carried out right from receiving quotation to issuing goods to production.
