What is the meaning of the phrase, "The coffee and cookies will be available in my office from 2:15 until their supply is exhausted"?
What is the meaning of the phrase, "The coffee and cookies will be available in my office from 2:15 until their supply is exhausted"?
Since the cookies and coffee are already prepared, their supply is not dependent upon the endurance and stamina of the cook.
When the "supply" of something is "exhausted" it means that nothing remains. This is what Polly is expressing in her email.
It is a well known fact that cookies have neither vocal chords nor hands, usually necessary when begging or pleading. This choice is incorrect.
Since the subject of the sentence is the coffee and cookies, the hours of the office are not related to their being "exhausted".

Kevin is actually concerned about the cost of raw materials. Because glass bottles are finished or refined products, they do not qualify as raw materials.
Although this is the correct definition of "importing", raw materials are unprocessed or unrefined.
