Icarus talks about a pinball machine being "a frivolous expenditure".
In this context, an "expenditure" is a/an "expense 2".
1 was disconnected: This is the correct answer. Bob explains that the older printer was in fact only "unplugged", which means that it simply needed to be plugged into or connected to a power supply. "Unplugged" can also refer to an acoustic musical instrument, without any electronic amplification.
1 needed to be repaired: This is incorrect. Bob doesn't say that the printer needed to be repaired or "serviced". Bob originally thought that the printer was broken, but discovered that it was "unplugged".
1 was out of paper: This is incorrect. Bob doesn't say that the printer is "out of" or "lacking in" paper.
1 was an out-of-date model: This is incorrect. Bob doesn't say that the printer was an "out-of-date" model or that it needed to be replaced.
2 expense: An "expenditure" is an "expense", or the act of spending money on something. Example: The expenditures for the office included money spent on office supplies, furniture and new computer equipment.
2 deferment: A "deferment" is a payment (of a loan for example) which has been delayed or postponed to a later time. Example: The bank required the loan be paid back in October, but I asked for a deferment until December. A deferment is not the same things as an "expenditure" of money.
2 loan: A "loan" is (generally) money given to someone with the intention that it be repaid at a later date. Example: The bank required the "loan" be paid back in October. A "loan" of money is not the same as an "expenditure" of money.
2 loss: A "loss" of money refers to money which no longer belongs to its original owner: either it was spent, lost on the stock market for example, etc. Example: Our third quarter "losses" made the president very angry. A "loss" of money is not the same as an "expenditure" of money.
