In the given case, batch production is the best method that
should be used.
This is because of the following reasons:
• A product like television would always be produced in
huge numbers and hence batch production is known for such kind of
manufacturing only.
• Batch production is used in those cases wherein the
company wants goods to be manufactured in huge numbers at one go
and also simultaneously ensure that the quality is not compromised
and hence in case of television batch production fits in the
best.
