Oscar claims that employee benefits have little impact on lifetime income so one should only consider a job with the largest salary. which statement about his claim is true? he is correct because a larger salary would allow one to save more money for retirement. he is correct because benefits have no monetary value to an employee even though the employer may pay for them. he is incorrect because health insurance will save the employee money he could apply to retirement. he is incorrect because the employer gives the money for benefits directly to the employee so the employee can use the money as he wishes.

He is incorrect because health insurance will save the employee money he could apply to retirement. Benefits are more important than salary, and a health insurance is one of the most valuable perks of benefits. Having a health insurance is a big help when health problems arise. Getting medical help is expensive and can drive you to bankruptcy even if you have a six-figure salary.

The correct answer is C.

Oscar's claim is incorrect because employee benefits do have an important impact on lifetime income.

Since health care in the United States is very costly, having insurance would save the employee a great amount of money in case he or she should need to be hospitalized, and the money not spent in health could be applied to retirement.

Therefore, employee benefits should be taken into account when considering to apply for a job, insted of only paying attention to the largest salary.

1. read the following excerpt from franklin d. roosevelt's "fireside chat 19":

on the other side of the picture, we must learn also to know that guerilla warfare against the germans in, let us say serbia or norway, us; that a successful russian offensive against the germans us; and that british successes on land or sea in any part of the world strengthen our hands.

remember always that germany and italy, regardless of any formal declaration of war, consider themselves at war with the united states at this moment just as much as they consider themselves at war with britain or russia. and germany puts all the other republics of the americas into the same category of enemies. the people of our sister republics of this hemisphere can be honored by that fact.  

the true goal we seek is far above and beyond the ugly field of battle. when we resort to force, as now we must, we are determined that this force shall be directed toward ultimate good as well as against immediate evil. we americans are not destroyers — we are builders.
