This means: the currency in the U. S. has strength against the Chilean currency. Thus, the correct option is C

Explanantion:

The benefit will be arisen because of the exchange rate benefit. Maria will get the jewellery at cheaper rate in Chile as compare to the jewellery purchased in South America. Thus, Juanita (her aunt) should not buy or shop for her in America as it will cost bit more to her. Exchnage rate should be taken care of while purchasing overseas.

Choose the option C as the correct answer.
