yulyashka [42]

Answer: The Mexican trip with his best friends

Ryan cannot choose both options and thus has to make a decision of which option to take. Therefore he automatically sacrifices the other option. This type of decision is relevant and is known as a relevant cost. Relevant costs are costs that differ between alternatives, and thus influence the decision that you will make.

Interest Expense = Value of Note x Stated Interest rate x 5/12 = $10,800 x 8% x 5/12 = $360

It is assumed that the interest is paid on December 31, year 1.
