Your friend currently works as an accountant at a public accounting firm in the small town of LaFontaine, Indiana. He is offered a job in Washington, D. C. for $60,000. Your friend calls you and tells you that he is excited about the new job offer, which gives him a raise from his current salary of $50,000. Based on your knowledge of economics, you think that: a. Your friend most likely should not be quite so excited because the extremely high cost of living in New York City means his real salary increase will be less than he imagined.
b. Your friend has every reason to be excited because he will be getting paid.
c. Your friend has reason to be excited because in a bigger city he will häve more things to do and his higher salary will allow him to spend on those activities.
d. Your friend has no reason to be excited because higher pay implies more job responsibilities and more working hours.
