As a cyber analyst I can say you never just ask individuals what is happening is where things are. Always assume the worst. In this case I would alert to make it known to many for investigation. I would just just ask the asset management team staff only. I could be wrong but I pick A.

option a This action is crucial because it addresses a potential issue of asset mismanagement or oversight that could lead to financial discrepancies, compliance issues, or security vulnerabilities. By alerting both audit and operations management, the auditor ensures that the discrepancy is investigated promptly and that corrective actions can be taken to rectify the inventory records.
