    Stock out costs increase

    Carrying costs decrease

    Explanation:

    Just in time (JIT) decreases total inventory and increases the number of deliveries made by the company's vendors.

    Since the company is going to hold fewer materials and components, then the risk of an stock out increases, resulting in higher stock out costs.

    The total inventory will decrease, therefore, the carrying costs will also decrease.
