True, but without competition, a firm can set its own prices.

I agree, but forecast accuracy also matters. If forecasts are off, demand can drop.

I’m not confident, but I think planning horizon might be relevant too. It’s tricky to decide without more context!

I’m leaning towards competition as the answer, but I wonder if the order processing system could also play a role in how quickly demand is met.

I remember a practice question that focused on how forecast accuracy can influence demand, but I feel like competition might overshadow that.

I think competition is a big factor that affects demand, but I'm not entirely sure if it's the most significant one.
