Question

question 1 of 6
a positive return on investment for education happens when______________.
select a response.
○ your earnings are higher than the cost of your education
○ you calculate earnings after working for one year after college
○ you attend a public university and do not take out loans
○ you use federal student loans to attend a private college

Explanation:

A positive return on investment (ROI) means the gains from an investment exceed the cost of that investment. For education, this occurs when the financial benefits (earnings) from the education are greater than the total costs (tuition, fees, lost income, etc.) incurred to obtain the education. The other options do not define a positive ROI: timing of earnings calculation, type of university, or loan source do not inherently determine if the return is positive.

Answer:

your earnings are higher than the cost of your education
