Answer:
Forecasted sales
Explanation:
In the production process amount of inventory purchased for producing goods must be carefully calculated.
This avoids waste incurred from buying excess of materials needed for operation. Also when there is shortage of materials time and resources are wasted getting more materials.
So when calculating material requirements for finished products it is important that we consider sales forecasts.
Materials purchased based on this will just adequately meet the demand for product.
This reduce cost of storage of excess materials.

Explanation:
Answer: Please refer to Explanation.
Explanation:
Two Companies. We shall call them A and B.
If A and B decide not to advertise, they both get $5,000,000.
If A advertises and B does not then A captures $3 million from B at a cost of $2 million meaning their payoff would be,
= 5 million - 2 million + 3 million
= $6 million.
A will have $6 million and B will have $2 million as $3 million was captured from them. This scenario holds true if B is the one that advertises and A does not.
If both of them Advertise, they both reduce their gains by $2 million while capturing $3 million from each other so they'll essentially both have just $3 million if they both decide to advertise.
With the above scenarios, it is better for both companies to ADVERTISE if there is NO COLLUSION. This is because it ensures that they do not get the lowest payoff of $2 million if the other company decides to advertise and they do not.
However, if they DO COLLUDE. They must both decide that NONE of them SHOULD ADVERTISE and this would leave them with their original $5 million each which is a higher payoff than the $3 million they will both receive if they were both advertising.
