-how do i extend the power/capacity, etc. of the existing ec2 instance on which my app is running.

Answer

1. Your environment will not be terminated, charges will start.
2. See: [Configuring Amazon EC2 instances for your environment](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/elasticbeanstalk/latest/dg/using-features.managing.ec2.html#using-features.managing.ec2.console).
3. If you want to project your costs, use the [Pricing Calculator](https://calculator.aws/#/).
4. Its a good idea to create a [Billing Alarm](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonCloudWatch/latest/monitoring/monitor_estimated_charges_with_cloudwatch.html).
5. Its a good idea to use [MFA](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/IAM/latest/UserGuide/id_credentials_mfa.html) on your IAM user accounts and the root user account.
