stock lot is the situation when a company has an
excess amount of what is needed, no matter if it is due to product development
or excess of products for the company’s own set limit.

target the production of 800 T.V.’s per month but the actual production was

When Purchasing bulk quantity is Unavoidable

needs should be kept and the excess should be disposed of.
