Question 21 • CMS 2026-2027 Economics and Personal Finance HONORS INITIAL CREDIT

Ariel wants to compare the salaries for positions she was offered at two companies. What should she consider in this process? Choose three correct answers.

Answer
A
She should take the position that offers the largest salary.
B
She should research the cost of living of different locations to compare against the offered salaries.
C
She should take the position that has the lowest cost of living.
D
She should research the average salary of similar positions to see if the offers are fair.
E
She should research the benefits included in each offer.

Explanation

A salary is only one part of comparing job offers. Ariel should compare each salary with the cost of living where the job is located, check typical pay for similar positions to judge whether the offers are fair, and consider the benefits included. Choosing only the largest salary or the location with the lowest cost of living ignores other important parts of each offer.
