Answer:
a. 50%
Explanation:
In this scenario, BrainTrust Company produces and sells educational toys for children. In pricing its product, the company needs to make sure it properly estimates its costs. The company can safely estimate that transportation is 50% of total distribution cost.
In supply chain management, the total distribution cost can be defined as the overall expenses incurred by a manufacturer in the process of delivering finished goods and services from the production stage to the final consumer. The total distribution cost can either be direct or indirect expenses incurred on insurance, handling, storage, shipping, packing and logistics.
<em>Generally, the total amount spent on the movement of goods and services from one location to another, usually accounts for half (50%) of the overall expenses incurred in total distribution cost. </em>

The second most common type of dependency is the<em> start-to-star</em>t one, where two activities need to start at the same time. This is common for activities where synchronization is paramount.
