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.
Answer:
C. the market demand curve understates the relative importance of the product and resources are therefore underallocated to its production.
Explanation:
Positive external benefits refer to third party positive side effects, above & beyond private marginal benefit to the concerned consumer.
Eg : Education - Its consumption not only affects the concerned person, but the positive trickle down to the people & society around.
Personal consumption decisions are based on : equalisation - of private marginal benefit (demand) curve & private marginal cost curve. However, goods having positive external benefits have real marginal benefit curve increased over private benefit curve, by the extent of extra marginal social benefit.
So, market demand (based on private marginal benefit) curve understates the importance of product, and resources are therefore underallocated to its production (due to undervaluation of demand).
Answer:
Disruptive innovation.

Although there was challenges of frequent repairs, this was eventually resolved.
To destory monopolies that were using their power to harm society.
