Oppourtunity Cost Report

Opportunity cost of a particular activity refers to the loss of profit that will be incurred when a particular activity is selected over another activity. For example, if a person prefers to study rather than work, then the salary offered to that person represents opportunity cost of studying further. If salary is $10,000, then $10,000 represents opportunity cost of choosing to study rather than working.

Monetary cost or accounting cost refers to the direct cost involved in a decision where money changes hands from one person to another person. For instance, in the case of production, when the production process is involved, then wages paid to workers, rate of interest paid on money borrowed etc, refers to the direct cost of production and thus is considered as monetary cost. On the other hand, opportunity cost does not involve any exchange of hands because it is foregone cost when one alternative is selected over another alternative. Thus, loss of benefit associated with one opportunity is referred to as opportunity cost. For instance, the rate of interest that one earn earn on money deposited in a bank account rather than using that money to start a business is referred to as opportunity cost.
