Answer:

B. the highest valued alternative that must be given up to engage in an activity.

Explanation:

Opportunity Cost is the cost of next best alternative foregone while choosing an alternative.

Eg1: If I like Chapati more than rice & rice more than curd, the opportunity cost of consuming chapati is the next best option i.e rice.

Eg2 : Working as school teacher with salary 20000, next best option salary as coaching tutor i.e 10000 is the Opportunity Cost

A is inapt : Opportunity cost can be monetary or non monetary. Eg2 has monetary opportunity cost. But, Eg 1 has opportunity cost in terms of rice' (sacrifised) satisfaction.

C is inapt : Opportunity cost is only the cost of next best alternative & not all alternatives. Eg1 - Curd i.e 3rd best option after chapati, is not the opportunity cost after chapati.

Romashka [77]

Answer:

Courts Distributors and Eastinghouse Corporation

Dispute over Contract Price

The two parties have a legal contract.  The contract was established when Courts requested Eastinghouse to send the refrigerators and bill later.

The exact price for the contract is in dispute.  This dispute can be resolved between the parties.  Reference to the market price will help resolve the dispute, otherwise, the parties may seek alternative dispute resolutions, like litigation, mediation, or arbitration.

Explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Eastinghouse's invoice price for the refrigerators = $140,000

Courts' adopted market price = $120,000

b) Since Courts' reference to the price is with regard to the wholesale market price, it may be that Eastinghouse quoted the retail price instead.  Since Courts is a distributor, it has the right to be charged a wholesaler's price and not a retailer's.  Therefore, we can conclude that after due reference to the prevailing market price of similar refrigerators, the two parties may agree to a price of $120,000 or a little higher.
