Soft savings usually refer to less tangible benefits, right?

I’m a bit confused about the definitions. I thought COPQ efficiency was more about process improvements, not inventory reduction.

I remember discussing COPQ in class, and I feel like this could relate to soft savings since it's about efficiency rather than direct cost.

I think inventory reduction might be considered hard savings because it directly impacts cash flow, but I'm not entirely sure.

I practiced a similar question where we had to identify types of savings, and I think hard savings makes the most sense here, but I could be wrong.

I think the key here is to remember the core principles of Scrum. The first Sprint is all about getting started and delivering something tangible, not just planning for the future. So I'm going with options C and E - develop at least one piece of functionality and create an increment of potentially releasable software.
