What is the opportunity cost in this scenario? Harry has been very busy at work for the past two weeks. He has been working week

ends too. Finally, he is going to get a weekend off. Originally, he planned to paint his apartment that weekend. He also considered going fishing for the weekend. But then his parents called and asked him to come for dinner because it has been a while since they have seen each other. Later on, his friend Theo informed him about a surprise birthday party for another friend. Theo plans to reserve a room at a restaurant for the celebration, with the cost to reserve the room split between Theo, Harry, and three other friends. Now Harry is confused about what he should do over the weekend. He decides that, for him, the most important commitments are going over to his parent's house and attending his friend's birthday party. In the end, Harry decides to see his parents.

Answer:

Harry's opportunity cost for going to his parents is not going to his friend's birthday party.

Explanation:

Harry has got a weekend off. He can use that weekend to paint his apartment or go fishing. He can also visit his parents for dinner. Or he can go to his friend's birthday party.  

With so many options Harry is confused, about what he should do. The most important commitments for him are going over to his parent's house and attending his friend's birthday party.

If he chooses to visit his parents, the opportunity cost is not going to the party.  

The opportunity cost of a decision is the cost of sacrificing the second-best alternative. The second-best alternative in this decision is attending the birthday party. So it will be considered the opportunity cost.

Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

E. focusing on personal appearance and delivery

Explanation:

If Jessica watched the whole debate that took place in only four candidates and does not remember the main points discussed, it means that something distracted her. The tip of the text is that she was impressed with the appearance and position of a candidate, but does not even remember what that same candidate said. Thus, it is assumed that she judged the appearance rather than the content of the candidates.
