Notional costs? Never heard of those being relevant.

Wait, are committed costs really irrelevant? That seems off.

Avoidable costs and opportunity costs are definitely relevant!

I agree, sunk costs shouldn't factor into short-term decisions.

Yup, avoidable and opportunity costs are the way to go!

I’m pretty confident that avoidable costs and opportunity costs are the right answers. They both affect future decisions, unlike sunk costs.

Committed costs sound familiar, but I can't recall if they are considered relevant. I feel like I need to double-check that.

I remember practicing a question like this where sunk costs were definitely not relevant. So, I guess that rules out option A.

I think avoidable costs are definitely relevant, but I'm not sure about opportunity costs. They seem important too, right?

I feel pretty confident about this. Sunk costs and opportunity costs are the two relevant costs for short-term decision making. The other options like committed costs and notional costs are not as important in the short term.

I'm a bit confused on this one. I know sunk costs are not relevant, but I'm not sure about the other options. I'll have to review my notes to make sure I understand the differences between these cost types.

Okay, I've got this. Avoidable costs and opportunity costs are the two relevant costs for short-term decision making. The other options like sunk costs and committed costs are not as important in the short term.

Hmm, this is a tricky one. I know sunk costs are not relevant, but I'm having trouble remembering which other costs are important for short-term decisions. I'll have to think this through carefully.

I see your point, Albina. Avoidable costs and Opportunity costs are the ones to consider in short-term decision making.

But Cyril, sunk costs are already incurred and cannot be changed, so they are not relevant for short-term decisions.

Notional costs? What is this, a fantasy football league? I'll stick with the real-world stuff, thanks.

Committed costs and opportunity costs are the way to go. Gotta think about what I'm actually on the hook for and what I'm giving up, you know?

Committed costs are important because they're already locked in.

Avoidable costs and opportunity costs, for sure. Those are the ones that can actually impact my decision-making. The rest are just irrelevant fluff.

Sunk costs? Seriously? That's like trying to get a refund on a movie ticket after the movie's over. Not relevant at all!
