YOUR ANSWER

Flow production is the best method of production for a manufacturing business to use as it produces standardized products on a large scale, which will allow the business to quickly respond to changing customer demands and is less likely to run out of stock. Additionally, flow production allows capital-intensive production methods to be easily used, reducing labor costs within the firm, and increasing efficiency which will lead to more output.
No, flow production may not be the best method of production for a manufacturing business to use as if the business is small it would not need to produce large amounts of products as it is less likely that it would be sold, leading to the shutdown of the business. Additionally, producing amounts on a large scale require large warehouse space to store inventories of raw materials, components, and finished goods. This can be costly and may reduce profit margin of the business.
In my opinion, the use of flow production depends on the size of the business as if it is a large, multinational business it should use flow production and if the business is small, job production or batch production would be better
