Some of the sources I found mention the exact estimate of 216 dollars per person -which means that the correct answer is c!

This estimate is a result of taking the full cost of the underage drinking (such as medical bills and destruction of infrastructure) and dividing it by the population.

I believe the answer is: C. 200


To be exact, the amount is around $ 216 per person.

the factors that included in the cost include things such as expense that must be paid to repair damage of properties, the expense to pay medical fees, the expense for insurance expenses, and the lost of potential future skilled workers.
