I think B is more relevant, stockouts are a big deal.

Aggregate inventory seems less relevant for measuring scheduling effectiveness. I guess it’s more about how quickly we can fulfill orders.

I practiced a question similar to this, and I feel like capacity utilization could be important, but it might not reflect customer satisfaction as much.

I'm not entirely sure, but I remember something about stockouts being a big issue in assemble-to-order setups. Maybe that's a key indicator too?

I think the customer order fill rate might be the best choice since it directly relates to how well we're meeting customer demand.

Okay, let's think this through step-by-step. The client wants to leave assets for the life benefit of his spouse, but ultimately have the funds pass to his children. So I need to consider the trust options that would allow that. The disadvantages are also important, so I'll need to analyze each choice carefully.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on the distinction between the two roles. I'll need to review the Scrum framework again to make sure I can confidently identify the unique responsibilities.
