D. Jenna underestimated the benefits of the movie.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.

Explanation:

The cost of the movie ticket is $7.  

The opportunity cost involved is $20.

The total cost of the movie will thus be $27.  

Jenna would have thought that the benefit of watching the movie would be worth $27 at least.  

But later she said that the movie was not worth it. This means that the cost incurred was higher than the benefits earned.  

This implies that Jenna overestimated the benefits of watching the movie.
