Answer to Question 1

B

Answer to Question 2

Pam, Pru and Pat's decision to go to Hawaii is rational. All three of them considered the cost and benefit of various New Year's plans. All three were at least willing to go to Hawaii while Pam and Pat were unwil-ling to go skiing and Pru was unwilling to go on a cruise. The opportunity cost of the trip for Pam is a cruise; for Pru, it is skiing; and for Pat, it is a cruise. The benefit each receives is the pleasure, the relaxation, excitement, and/or knowledge gained from the trip.
