Answer to Question 1

It does not. You could use your miles for other travel and so there is an opportunity cost if you use your miles to fly to Bermuda. Suppose, for example, you are definitely going to fly to Chicago when the spring semester is over. You could use your 40,000 miles to fly to Chicago or you could purchase a ticket for 300 . In this case, the opportunity cost of using your miles to fly to Bermuda is the 300 you will have to spend for the airfare to Chicago.

Answer to Question 2

TRUE
