Explanation:
While Antonio’s hatred of Shylock is based solely on religious intolerance, Shylock’s hatred of
Antonio goes beyond just their differing religious beliefs. One of Antonio’s main problems with Shylock
is that, as a Jew, Shylock charges interest on his loans, something that Antonio, as a Christian, believes is
wrong. As soon as Antonio enters in Act 1, Scene 3, Shylock begins to complain about how Antonio
publicly heckles him for earning money through interest (1.3.40-3), something that Antonio says he never
does himself (1.3.53-4). By juxtaposing Shylock and Antonio’s views on the exact same issue—i.e.,
whether charging interest on loans is religiously acceptable—Shakespeare emphasizes how different
religious beliefs can form the basis of discrimination, mockery, and violence. On the other hand,
Shylock’s hatred of Antonio is more nuanced than Antonio’s hatred of Shylock. While Shylock is quick
to admit that he hates Antonio because he is a Christian (1.3.34), he immediately goes on to add that
Antonio “lends out money gratis, and brings down / The rate of usance here with us in Venice” (1.3.36-7)
and that “he rails / Even there where merchants most do congregate / On me, my bargains, and my well-
won thrift / Which he calls interest” (1.3.40-3). Here it is made clear that while Shylock holds religious
prejudice of his own, it is Antonio’s undermining of Shylock’s ability to make maximum financial profit
that bothers Shylock most. It is thus apparent that Shakespeare’s development of Shylock’s character not
only includes the type of religious prejudice that Antonio is guilty of but also the stereotype of the greedy,
money-obsessed Jew.

In production, research, retail, and accounting, a cost is the value of money that has been used up to produce something or deliver a service, and hence is not available for use anymore. In business, the cost may be one of acquisition, in which case the amount of money expended to acquire it is counted as cost
