A benefit of product traceability is reduced:

Answer options

• A. size of product recalls to affected items.
• B. need for customs inspections.
• C. need for compliance audits.
• D. size of production lots.

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is A because product traceability allows companies to quickly identify and isolate affected items during a recall, minimizing the overall impact. The other options do not directly relate to the benefits of traceability, as customs inspections, compliance audits, and production lot sizes are managed through different processes.
