Option b.
Explanation:
In standard cycle, competitive actions are designed to serve large market shares, to gain customer loyalty and to control the firm's operations which in turn provide the same positive experience to customers.
Goods or services in standard-cycle markets reflect <u>organizations that serve a mass market.</u>
Standard-cycle markets refer to the markets where the firm's competitive advantages are shielded from imitation such that those advantages can be sustained longer but for a shorter period.
These advantages can be sustained for longer period in a slow-cycle market than in fast-cycle markets.
Competitive advantages are sustainable in slow-cycle as these are shielded from imitation for longer periods of time such that imitation is costly.

Opportunity cost is the loss due to forgoing one opportunity to select another one alternative.
In this case, the forgone alternative is the full-time employment and other expenses for the term when the alternative chosen is to be in school. In this case, room and board expenses remain the same whether in school or working full time and thus not considered. The part-time amount earned while at school is subtracted as it would be compensated be during full time employment.
Therefore;
Opportunity cost = $20,000+$10,000+$1,000-$8,000 = $23,000
