Opportunity Cost Analysis

Opportunity cost refers to the loss of potential benefits when choosing one alternative over another. It is the tradeoff a person makes, or the potential gains they miss out on, because of their choice. To analyze opportunity cost, we must consider the benefits and tradeoffs of each available option.
