C. Rebecca should not have stopped making payments on her car although that might not have as a direct consequence that she will only qualify for a high interest credit card

Jaslene Burke · Answer 2

Option C is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given scenario, the correct answer can be - C. Rebecca should not have stopped making payments on her car because now she will only qualify for a high-interest credit card.

After stopping the payments, Rebecca became a defaulter in some way. Now, her credit score will drop and this will become a problem in future if she wants to take any other loan. In case if she still gets a loan, she will get a very high interest rate due to this decision.
