So basically Discretionary income is the income that is left after, taxes and the money you spend on necessities such as water, food and shelter. So I will ask you do you know what these are? Gross Pay Net Income Fixed Expenses

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Not quite.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okayy, so first ill tell you what these are

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Okey dokie.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Gross pay is what you make before any deductions.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Net Income: A company's total earnings (or profit).

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Fixed Expenses/Costs, do not change, example would be Rent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I would think C then. That would be my best educated guess.
