WIF-102 YCMOU Guess Paper, Solved PYQs, Notes 2026-27

WIF-102 Guess Paper, Solved PYQs, and Notes (2026-27) is the definitive study aid for YCMOU students aiming to maximize Continuous Assessment (CA) marks and Term-End Exam (TEE) scores in Warehousing & Inventory Management. Designed to bridge the gap between Self-Instructional Material (SIM) theory and practical examination demands, this resource delivers exact question patterns from past TEE papers—including 2023-24 and 2024-25 PYQs—with step-by-step model answers that align with YCMOU’s grading rubrics.

Course Overview & Academic Objective

WIF-102 focuses on modern warehousing strategies, inventory optimization, and supply chain integration—core competencies for logistics professionals. Students learn to apply ABC analysis, economic order quantity (EOQ), and JIT principles to real-world scenarios, while mastering YCMOU’s prescribed topics such as:

• Warehouse Layout & Storage Systems (including unit load design and automated storage techniques)
• Inventory Control Methods (FIFO, LIFO, weighted average, and ABC-XYZ classification)
• Supply Chain Coordination (vendor-managed inventory, cross-docking, and YCMOU’s case studies on Indian logistics)
• Legal & Ethical Aspects of Warehousing (GST implications, contract warehousing laws, and PRN-compliant documentation)
