Answer:

independent demand is based on market forces while Dependent demand is based on production schedule

Step-by-step explanation:

Independent demand is the demand for a finished product bought by a consumer e.g. the demand for a textbook by a student

independent demand is based on market forces e.g. the price of the good

Consumers would be more willing to purchase a good that is cheaper compared to other goods

Dependent demand is the demand for the factors of productions that are needed in the production of the final good or service. e.g. the demand for labour , purchase of inventory needed to produce a good

If consumers do not demand for the finished product, there would be no demand for the inventory
