Answer 1

Hello there!

Your question asks what an opportunity cost of an action is.

Answer: D). is a subjective valuation that can be determined only by the individual who chooses the action.

The reason why answer choice "D). is a subjective valuation that can be determined only by the individual who chooses the action" is correct because an opportunity cost of an action is not the same for everyone.

An opportunity cost of an action is subjective, meaning that the action can be determined by someone's opinion, feelings, etc. Everyone thinks differently, therefore making everyone's opportunity cost of action different.

A opportunity cost of an action also is determined by the individual themselves, not anyone else. That's why the action is subjective, due to the fact that the decision on the action is determined by the individual personal opinions and feelings.

I hope this helps!
