Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

dependent demand items are those which are used to assemble or produce another product. In this case, bicycle tires are used to assemble a bicycle and are dependent on the demand for bicycles. Televisions and furniture are examples of independent demand items, as they are directly demanded by the end consumer. Retail customers are not a type of product, so they cannot be classified as dependent or independent demand items.
