  1. Sandy is considering moving from her apartment into a small house with a fenced yard. The house would be quieter, making it easier to study, and the yard would be great for her dog. The house is about the same distance from campus as her apartment. Rent for the apartment is $750 per month. If Sandy moves to the house, she must pay the remaining two months of the lease for the apartment. The rent for the house is $450 per month plus utilities. Sandy estimates the utilities will be $200 per month. The apartment is furnished but the house is not. A used furniture store has offered to finance the purchase of the necessary furniture for $50 per month.

    Which of the following costs is not relevant to Sandys decision to move to the house or stay in the apartment?

    The cost of renting the house

    The cost of the furniture

    The cost for utilities for the house

    The two months of remaining rent on the apartment
