The theory of constraints can
A)identify what limitations exist with raw material suppliers.
B)follows a methodology similar to linear programming.
C)be ignored since it assumes too many estimates in the production cycle.
D)show where bottlenecks exist and sets the limit of output to these bottlenecks.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The theory of constraints helps to identify where bottlenecks exist and sets the limit of output to these bottlenecks, ensuring that the system operates as efficiently as possible. Options A and C are incorrect because the theory of constraints is not focused on raw material suppliers or making estimates in the production cycle. Option B is also incorrect because the methodology of linear programming is different from the theory of constraints.
