Answer to Question 1

The largest cost of attending a university is the opportunity cost of the student's time. This could be measured by the foregone income that could have been earned if the student worked instead of attending classes.

Answer to Question 2

This statement is true. If money does not hold its value over time, it will not be accepted in exchange for goods and services. I must be confident that money I accept today for a good or service rendered will be considered valuable tomorrow when I seek to trade it for a good or service. Lacking that confidence I will not accept money today.
