Answer:

c. 80 dollars.

Explanation:

Opportunity cost represents the next best alternative missed.  It is the forfeited benefits arising from choosing one option over the others. Opportunity cost is expressed as a value or the worth of the forgone alternative.

Lisa's opportunity cost is $ 80.  She has valued going out with her friend at $ 80, which is the highest value amongst her three choices. Since she can not engage in all the three activities at the same time, the next best alternative to writing her exam is the opportunity cost.

insens350 [35]

Answer:

Defection rate, or costumer defection rate is one of the major factors due to which a company can hit rock bottom. The costumer defection rate can be defined as the rate at which the existing costumers of a certain company leave a brand, to switch over a competitor, or stop using that certain type of product all together.
