Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Short-term capacity decisions typically involve making adjustments to meet immediate or near-term demand. Renting warehouse space for a new promotional item is a short-term decision as it relates to a specific product promotion and does not require a long-term investment in infrastructure. The other choices involve more significant investments and changes that would impact capacity over a longer timeframe.
