Question 14: CCDV-F: Claude Certified Developer - Foundations

A teammate has asked you to explain why the team’s Claude application is billed for output tokens at a different rate than input tokens. They had assumed the rate was the same for both. How would you explain the difference?

1. A. Output tokens are typically billed at a higher rate than input tokens, and cost models for the application should reflect both rates separately. — đáp án hiện tại
2. B. Output tokens are typically billed at the same rate as input tokens, and the apparent rate difference is a billing error to report to Anthropic.
3. C. Output tokens are typically billed at a lower rate than input tokens, because output tokens are cheaper to produce than input tokens are to process.
4. D. Output tokens are not billed at all, because cost is determined entirely by the input tokens sent to the model on each request.
