True...

 

Demand for a product or service is independent when it is not related to the demand for any other product or service.

 

Dependent demand for a product or service occurs where the demand for the item is derived from that of a second item.

 

Requirements for dependent demand items need not be forecast but can be calculated from that of the independent demand item.
