| Relation | Assumption(s) | Injection(s) |
| D-D' | They are opposing ideas of how to handle the market demand | |
| B-D | the demand is short lived and though these products yield high profit, they are not our main source of profits. | |
| C-D' | the demand is expected to spike and we have capabilities of reaching those consumers. | Foresight into the market is difficult, and this is a high risk move since the demand will not last long and will not certainly increase more than in previous years therefore we do not act yet. |
| A-B | When you invest more than you make you lose money. | |
| A-C | Costs are always rising and thus profits must also rise. |
