What problem can occur if an entrepreneur produces a lot without market demand?

Correct answer: Resources and money may get stuck

The direct answer is A: resources and money may get stuck. Production should be connected with expected market demand. The reasoning is: first estimate what customers may want; then plan quantity, cost, storage, and selling; only after that produce an appropriate amount. If an entrepreneur produces a large quantity without studying demand, goods may remain unsold. Money is then tied up in stock, storage and maintenance costs may rise, materials and time may be wasted, and the product may become outdated or damaged. Option A is correct because unsold stock can trap both resources and invested money. Option B is wrong because production alone cannot guarantee more customers. Option C is wrong because uncertainty and business risk remain; they do not disappear. Option D is wrong because costs do not automatically fall and may actually rise through storage and waste. Exam cue: study the market before large-scale production.
