Question:
The inventory pattern shown in the figure does not represent the following:
The inventory pattern shown in the figure does not represent the following:
Show Hint
A straight, downward-sloping inventory curve with instant restocking represents uniform demand, not decreasing demand.
Updated On: May 28, 2025
- Inventory is replenished instantaneously
- Demand decreases with time
- Shortage is not permitted
- Demand is uniform
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is B
Solution and Explanation
The inventory pattern shown is a classic saw-tooth diagram, which represents a system where inventory is replenished instantly at a fixed point, and then steadily consumed over time due to constant demand. The slope of the decreasing inventory lines is linear, indicating uniform demand. Since inventory is replenished before reaching zero, no shortages occur. Also, the inventory jumps vertically, showing instantaneous replenishment. However, the graph does not indicate that demand decreases with time; instead, it remains constant throughout.

Top Questions on Mine planning and its components
- A longwall panel is to be developed in a flat seam at a depth of \( H \) m. The surface subsidence profile (\( s \)) of the area with the horizontal distance \( x \) is estimated as \[ s = \frac{S_{{max}}}{2} \left[ 1.002 - \tanh \left( \frac{4.8x}{H} \right) \right], \] where \( S_{{max}} \) is the maximum subsidence at the centre of the panel, \( x \) is measured from the inflection point. The value of \( x \) is negative towards the panel centre and positive towards the panel boundary. The ratio between the critical width of the panel and the depth is:
