Jessie is considering breaking up with Taylor. Taylor is becoming withdrawn and sullen, and their relationship is deteriorating. When her friends encourage her to make the break, Jessie replies, "Taylor's a lot of work right now—more than I'm getting out of the relationship. But we've been together for five years, and we have a lot of really good history. It'd be a shame to throw those good years away. I'm just going to have to stick it out." What type of analysis is Jessie likely using to arrive at her decision? Group of answer choices Market analysis. Value analysis. Marginal analysis. Cost-benefit analysis.

The cost-benefit analysis is a method used to make business and economic-based decisions. The cost-benefit analysis can be used to judge a single option or compare two or more options to select the optimal alternative. The cost-benefit analysis consists of estimating all the costs of a particular decision then comparing them to the estimated benefit of that decision.

Jessie is using the cost-benefit analysis because she is determining the cost of what she could lose in front of the benefit of what she still could get with her relationship with Taylor based on what they have already experienced.
