We make choices as consumers every day. Opportunity cost is defined as a person’s "next best alternative" or "the cost of what you give up when you make a choice."

Think of a recent decision you made regarding your career. What was your opportunity cost for making that choice? What was your "next best alternative"?

Ms. Sue,

Answer the question the way it is.
OK.

Since I retired almost 15 years ago as a teacher, so I've made no "recent decisions" about my career.
Fifteen years ago I decided to retire. I gave up income and increased credits for my pension.

My next best alternative was to work as a substitute teacher to continue earning some income.
