Option B is the correct answer. Independent demand is not related to the demand for any other products or assemblies.

I thought independent demand was just about how it stands alone, so I’m pretty sure it’s B, but I could be mixing it up with dependent demand.
CH
Christiane 8 months ago
I’m a bit unsure, but I feel like independent demand could be both not related to other products and calculated, so maybe it’s D?
LO
Lorenza 8 months ago
I remember practicing a question like this, and I think independent demand is calculated, which makes me consider option C as well.

I've got a good feeling about this one. The key is remembering that independent demand is not related to the demand for other products or assemblies. So I'm confident B is the right choice.

Ah, this is the kind of question I struggle with. There are a lot of tricky terms in operations management. I'll have to really focus and read through the options carefully before answering.
DO
Dorcas 9 months ago
Okay, let me think this through. Independent demand is when the demand for a product is not influenced by the demand for other products, right? So I'm thinking B is the correct answer here.
CH
Chu 9 months ago
Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I know independent demand is different from dependent demand, but I can't quite remember the exact definition. Maybe I'll try to eliminate the options that don't sound right.
