    Being credit savvy includes understanding that a credit card is a high interest, short term loan.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Being credit savvy means having knowledge and understanding about credit cards. One aspect of being credit savvy is recognizing that a credit card is essentially a type of loan. Credit cards typically have high interest rates, meaning that if you don't pay off your balance in full each month, you will be charged interest on the remaining balance. Additionally, credit cards are considered short term loans because they allow you to borrow money for a short period of time, typically on a monthly basis. Therefore, the statement that a credit card is a high interest, short term loan is true.

    • True

    • False

This setup allows employees to save for their retirement in a convenient and structured way, with the added benefit of receiving additional contributions from their employer. Therefore, the statement that an employer-based plan invests for employees' retirement through payroll deduction and matching contribution is true.

    • Describe

    • Prove

    • Interpret

    Correct Answer
    A. Describe
    Explanation
    An essay question that asks you to provide a detailed account will often use the verb "describe". This is because the word "describe" implies providing a thorough and comprehensive explanation or account of a particular topic or concept. It requires the writer to provide specific details, examples, and explanations to fully illustrate and explain the subject matter.

This is because being athletic involves using and training various parts of the body, such as muscles, joints, and cardiovascular system. Understanding the anatomy of the whole body would be beneficial for athletes to optimize their performance, prevent injuries, and improve their overall physical fitness.

Abstract messages often rely on general concepts or ideas, which can be interpreted differently by different individuals. Without clear and specific information, it can be challenging for people to fully grasp the intended meaning of abstract messages. Additionally, abstract messages may require more interpretation and subjective judgment, leading to potential disagreements or misunderstandings among individuals.

Working with your hands involves manual dexterity and practical skills, which are often required in activities such as crafting, engineering, or woodworking.

It includes touch (haptic memory), sound (echoic memory), and sight (iconic memory). These sensory memories are very brief and only last for a few seconds before they are either forgotten or transferred to short-term memory. Therefore, all three types of sensory memory are included in our sensory memory system.

Through language, we construct meaning and make sense of the world around us. Words also have the ability to define and categorize our experiences, influencing how we interpret and interact with reality.

While it may seem like a good idea to cram as much information as possible in a short amount of time, research has shown that this method is ineffective for long-term retention and can lead to exhaustion and burnout. It is important to take regular breaks to rest and recharge, as well as to switch between subjects to maintain focus and prevent boredom. Paying attention to details and aiming for accuracy are beneficial study strategies that can enhance understanding and retention of information.

    Stocks are sold for a profit if the stock price goes down.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer

When an investor buys a stock at a lower price and sells it at a higher price, they make a profit. Therefore, the statement that stocks are sold for a profit if the stock price goes down is incorrect.

    Concrete words are those that use the five senses to convey meanings. These words refer to tangible objects or experiences that can be perceived through sight, hearing, touch, taste, or smell. Unlike abstract words, which represent ideas or concepts, concrete words provide specific and vivid descriptions that make the meaning more clear and relatable to the reader or listener. By using concrete words, writers and speakers can create a more engaging and sensory experience for their audience.

    Go to www.extension.purdue.edu/retirement/ Click on Module 2, then click on Module 2a.What percentage of your current income will be sufficient as retirement income?

    • 50-60 percent

    • 40-50 percent

    • 70-80 percent

    • 100 percent

    Correct Answer
    A. 70-80 percent
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 70-80 percent. This percentage is considered sufficient as retirement income because it takes into account the fact that some expenses may decrease in retirement, such as commuting costs and work-related expenses, but other expenses may increase, such as healthcare and leisure activities. It is important to have a retirement income that can cover these expenses and maintain a similar standard of living as before retirement.

    Funding an IRA increases your taxable income.

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    Funding an IRA does not increase your taxable income. In fact, contributions to a traditional IRA are typically tax-deductible, meaning they reduce your taxable income. This can provide a tax benefit by lowering the amount of income subject to taxation. However, it's important to note that withdrawals from a traditional IRA are generally subject to taxes.

    Degrees which are designed to transfer include

    • Certificates

    • Associate of Applied Science

    • Associate of Science

    • Associate of Arts

    • Both C & D

    Correct Answer
    A. Both C & D
    Explanation
    Degrees that are designed to transfer include Associate of Science and Associate of Arts. These degrees are typically offered by community colleges and are intended to provide a solid foundation in general education courses, which can then be transferred to a four-year college or university. The Associate of Applied Science degree, on the other hand, is more focused on specific career skills and may not transfer as easily to a four-year institution. Therefore, the correct answer is both C (Associate of Science) and D (Associate of Arts).

    A useful way to remember what you read is to

    • Read extra slowly.

    • Skim quickly.

    • Take notes in your own words.

    • All of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. Take notes in your own words.
    Explanation
    Taking notes in your own words is a useful way to remember what you read because it requires active engagement with the material. When you summarize and rephrase the information in your own words, you are processing and understanding it on a deeper level. This helps to reinforce your memory and comprehension of the content. Additionally, the act of writing down the information can also serve as a visual and kinesthetic memory aid. Reading extra slowly and skimming quickly may not be as effective in retaining information as they do not involve active processing or engagement with the material. Therefore, taking notes in your own words is the most effective strategy for remembering what you read.
