Costs Versus Benefits. Costs and benefits are key factors that all economic decision makers take into account. Families, small business owners and others weigh the benefits and costs of decisions related to purchases, investments, sales and other expenditures before making a decision.
An object pronoun, also called objective pronoun, functions as the object of a verb or preposition, as distinguished from a subject or subjective pronoun, which is the subject of a verb. Examples: He begged her to live with him.
A direct object is a noun following the verb that answers the questions what? or whom? Remember a pronoun replaces a noun, and in this case the noun is a direct object. Verbs that have a direct object are called transitive verbs. Direct object pronouns in Spanish agree in number and gender with the nouns they replace. In the following example, hijos is a masculine, plural noun so the masculine plural direct object pronoun los is used to replace it in the second sentence. Son muy buenos hijos. No los cambiarÃ­a.
