Joe runs a landscape business. He knows that providing landscaping services costs him $100 per hour on average, while the cost of providing such services is $150 per hour after 5 PM (due to overtime pay, reduced productivity, and the added wear and tear on his equipment) .

C) Joe should decline the job, since he would lose $150 per hour worked on the job.
