    The correct answer is letter "E": having enough books to satisfy customer demands versus the cost of having the inventory.

    Explanation:

    As stated in the case, bookstores do not worry about if the newly published book is going to be a hit in the stores. They only care about if at least some of their customers would want to buy the politician's book. Thus, the challenge for them is to find out if the stock they have is enough for their customers and what is the cost of storing that amount of books in their inventory.
