2. No sufficient inventory systems, and as a result, run a risk of suffering losses due to wastage and
3. High Operating expenses ratio -total expenses of the business (of records kept) are higher than the total revenue. This further indicates that the current pricing, sales volumes, and/cost structure are unsustainable.
