True
Explanation:
Generally, net income will be the same under absorption costing and variable costing. However, producing fewer units than units sold will decrease the net income under absorption costing.

Under the variable costing, the fixed overhead will be calculated as per the units produced. Therefore, the net income will decrease proportionately.

Technological changes
E.g. the rapid growth of social networking may require changes to the way the business communicates with employees and customers
E.g. the growing number of single-person households is increasing demand from employees for flexible working options
