Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Adding another student to a class after the course has started does not significantly increase the variable costs for the university. The instructor and classroom resources are already in place, and adding one more student does not require any additional administrative or parking resources. Therefore, the cost of adding another student to a class is next to nothing.
