Warren's Ice Cream makes 4 different flavors of ice cream using their secret process and top secret recipes. Each of their flavors is equally popular and experiences a demand of 5,000 gallons/year

B) Warren's cannot add the fifth flavor because the holding cost would increase. C) Warren's can add the fifth flavor only if there is zero setup time between flavors. D) Warren's cannot add the fifth flavor because demand would exceed capacity.
