Question

Scenario II:

Mrs. Ghas T. Dur. Was hooked by so many nice freebies in Avon. She ordered new things including gadget for
her two adolescent children who are in grade 8 and the other in grade 12.
Last December her husband gave her all the money he received from the company he is working.
With the holiday season she spends for gifts and foods for special occasion, what she left by January was
5,000.00. She still owes Avon amounting to 4,500.00 which is due by 15th this month. Her two children were
asking to pay for tuition fees that has a balance of 4,500.00 and so they can take the exam. If you were in the
position of Mrs. Ghas what will you do then, which will you pay first and how much. Where will you get an extra
amount to pay your dues? Justify your answer.

Answer 1

Pay tuition first

Step-by-step explanation:

Mrs. Das should pay the tuition fee of her children first from the $5000 balance with her, this is to enable the children take their exams without any distraction. Failure to pay their tuition may also mean that the children will spend an additional year in some cases. Therefore to avoid inflicting psychological distress on the children, paying the children's tuition will be made priority.

Also, settling Avon before the due date is important too and if I were in her shoes may decide to return or sell some of the goods purchased from her because it could be seen that Mrs. Das was carried away by Avon's stock and purchased more than those things which they needed most importantly.
