Answer:

C) a stockout can occur during the review period as well as during the lead time.

Explanation:

In a fixed-period inventory system replenishment orders are sent periodically or after a fixed time interval.

This type of inventory system is not very used anymore as more modern inventory systems are used now, like perpetual inventory system or just in time inventory management. It's not cost efficient.
