Opportunity cost is best described as below:

Giving up an opportunity to do something else when making an economic decision.

In simple words, when there are two or more options in front of a person while making a decision, and he takes one of them by keeping something in mind and leave the other ones, then he is losing the opportunity of having the other alternative. This losing cost is actually the Opportunity Cost. It is basically the loss of one option while choosing the other one.

sales  value of the golf course lots=100*$95,000=$9,500,000

sales value of street frontage lots=150*$65,000=$ 9,750,000

Total sales value =$9,500,000+$9,750,000=$ 19,250,000

joint costs to street frontage lots=$3,200,000*$9,750,000/$19,250,000.00

                                                     =$ 1,620,779.22
