Consequences of Incorrect Measuring in Design and Production

All of the following describe the consequences of incorrect measuring except:

A. A client is dissatisfied with the way the shape of the couch looks.

B. Fabric is cut incorrectly and can no longer serve its intended purpose.

C. It is difficult to close a door because a couch encroaches on the door frame.

D. A dress designed for a runway does not fit the model wearing it properly.

Final answer:

The consequences of incorrect measuring typically result in dissatisfied clients, wasted materials, or poorly fitted products, due to limitations of the measuring device, the measurer's skill, and object irregularities. However, a couch that blocks a door due to poor placement decision is not due to incorrect measuring.

Explanation:

These consequences might include a client being dissatisfied with a product, materials being wasted, or a poorly fitted garment. Factors that contribute to inaccurate measurements can include the limitations of the measuring device, the skill of the person making the measurement, irregularities in the object being measured, and other situational factors.

Option C, 'It is difficult to close a door because a couch encroaches on the door frame,' describes a potential outcome of poor design or planning, rather than a direct consequence of incorrect measuring. It implies that the couch was made to the correct size, but its placement in the room was not adequately considered in relation to the door frame. Therefore, the correct answer is Option C, as all other options directly result from incorrect measurement outcomes.
