In practice the decision comes down to three numbers: unit cost, freight per unit and the realistic sell through rate for Ultra Mini.

Commercial terms

Lead times are a function of component availability as much as factory capacity, so buffers should reflect both.

| Pallet (1426 units) | Tier 2 | 14-21 days |
