I'll explain my method and hope it helps you :)

Price inelastic means it is not easy to change price. (you probably already know that)

1 = working at full capacity therefore no extra storage = price inelastic
2= there is stock = price elastic
3 = ease of transportation = price elastic
4= Longer time period = price inelastic.

The two which are price inelastic are 1 and 4. The answer should be B.
thank you :)
