I discuss the concept of opportunity cost, using a simple example to illustrate the definition.
Opportunity cost is defined as the cost of the next best alternative foregone when making a decision. This is a very important concept in economics, with all economic decisions coming down to opportunity cost. It is thus worth looking over some examples to make sure this concept makes sense.
