Which of the following is true of a physical distribution system?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

A physical distribution system involves more than the physical movement of goods. It includes the location of plants and warehousing (storage), transportation mode, inventory quantities, and packing. The concept of physical distribution takes into account the interdependence of the costs of each activity; a decision involving one activity affects the cost and efficiency of one or all others. In fact, because of their interdependence, the sum of each of the different activity costs entails an infinite number of "total costs."
