Let's analyze Tiffany's spreadsheet of expenses to determine which expenses are variable:
1. Rent: The amount remains consistent at \[tex]$1,150.00 each month (January through June).
2. Utility Bill: The amounts vary each month (\$[/tex]114.11, \[tex]$118.98, \$[/tex]124.41, \[tex]$105.30, \$[/tex]110.58, \[tex]$129.86).
3. Car Loan Payment: The amount is consistent at \$[/tex]377.00 each month.
4. Insurance Payment: The amount remains consistent at \[tex]$91.50 each month.
5. Groceries: The amounts vary each month (\$[/tex]352.30, \[tex]$329.63, \$[/tex]310.29, \[tex]$328.69, \$[/tex]342.46, \[tex]$304.93).
6. Savings Account: The amount remains consistent at \$[/tex]150.00 each month.
7. Clothing: The amounts vary each month (\[tex]$105.67, \$[/tex]52.74, \[tex]$0.00, \$[/tex]76.12, \[tex]$23.90, \$[/tex]134.85).
8. Fuel: The amounts vary each month (\[tex]$112.50, \$[/tex]107.32, \[tex]$109.24, \$[/tex]102.87, \[tex]$117.46, \$[/tex]98.41).
From this analysis, we can see that variable expenses are those that change from month to month. Among the options provided:
A. Car Loan Payment: This is a fixed expense as it remains consistent every month.
B. Groceries: This is a variable expense as the amount changes each month.
Therefore, one of Tiffany's variable expenses is:
B. Groceries
