Answer:

A. He budgeted more than the maximum recommended amount of money for transportation. PLATO (Im 100% sure ;) )

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Lewis has a net spendable income of $2,000 per month.

He sets up 15 to 20 percent for transportation budget. This means he sets up between:

[tex]0.15\times2000=300[/tex] and [tex]0.20\times2000=400[/tex] dollars.

Now, Lewis has allotted [tex]210+120+60+8+2=400[/tex] to five subcategories. He has no money left for maintenance or repairs.

So, there are 2 possible answers.  

A. He budgeted more than the maximum recommended amount of money for transportation. - If he adds some money to repairs it will be more than $400 thus making the budget more than $400.

And another possible answer is option D. He has not budgeted for all of the expenses in the subcategories. - He has not allotted cost for repairs.
