Explanation

Appropriation is the specific legal term under the Sale of Goods Act for selecting goods with mutual consent of buyer and seller, to be used in fulfilling a contract. It identifies exactly which goods from a larger quantity are to be delivered to the buyer. Distribution refers to spreading goods, amortization to debt repayment, and storage to warehousing - none involve this mutual selection process.
