The option that should be included in the opportunity cost is c. the savings that would come from buying the wingtips.

What is Opportunity Cost?

  • Arises from the fact that scarcity forces us to pick an alternative over another.
  • Is quantified as the benefit of an alternative that is foregone when we pick another alternative.

The benefit that would be foregone in picking the slip-ons would be the $50 saving that Sean would have made had he picked the wingtips.
