Suppose you have purchased a non-refundable plane ticket and, at the last moment, you cannot take the trip. You can, however, sell the ticket.

a. $700 because that is what the ticket cost.
b. $720 because that is the cost of the ticket and of getting it to the buyer.
c. $730 because that is the total cost of the ticket and getting it to the buyer.
d. More than $730, so that you can make a profit.
