If Maria decides to purchase the sun hat and the beach towel, the opportunity cost of her purchase would be the other items she could have bought instead of the sun hat and beach towel.
The total cost of the sun hat ($8) and the beach towel ($7) is $15, which means she will not be able to purchase the bathing suit ($15) or the magazine ($8) with that money.
Therefore, the correct answers for the opportunity cost of her purchase are:
C. The magazine
D. The bathing suit
