B) He should keep the clock but not make the repairs since the original $300 is a sunk cost. C) He should complete the additional repairs and sell the clock for $450. D) He should keep the clock after making the repairs since it is not rational to spend a total of $475 on an item that can only be sold for $450. E) Kevin is indifferent between selling the clock as is or selling it after completing the repairs.
