I may be all wet, but it seems logical to me.

You REALLY need to go an take a financial accounting and micro-economics class. We all wish that supply volumes were indefinite (but if they were, costs would be indefinitely low as well).

If I was running a shop right now I would be in full on panic mode about how I am going to pay overhead for the next 12 months while I wait on suppliers. I would be looking at seriously altering my business models.
