A-What information did Ned consider in making his decision?

Ned considered the usual quantity to place an order.

B-How does the merchandise report assist him with the decision?Does this report appear to meet his information needs for the decision made?

Ned compared the desired inventory with that of actual number on hand and placed order for wool and cotton as they were less than desired inventory, while synthetic was more than desired inventory.

The report is not of standard format, it should have include the economic order quantity and the reorder point.

C-What effect does the information in the report and Ned's decision have on the future of the company?

Inventory is an item if it is more than the required quantity then there is problem and if it is less than the required quantity then there is a problem. If the quantity is more than the required then the financing cost of carrying inventory is increased and if it is less than the loss of revenue and loss of goodwill due to dissatisfaction of customer, therefore it is very important to have accurate forecasting of sales to maintain a balanced inventory level.
