Hi

For definitions, you should check a dictionary. Here are some links to an online dictionary:

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/restituted
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/reimbursed
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/inexpensive
http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/refundable

When you add non- to the adjective refundable, it means the same thing as "not refundable".
