Question

Jordan is considering three choices of spending the new year's eve. Option A is to dine outside at a luxury restaurant; option B is indoor skydiving, and option C is to play video games at a close-by club. If all three options cost the same, explicitly, what can be the economic reason for Jordan choosing option B

Answer 1

Answer: b. Jordan values option B more than options A and C.

Explanation:

All options cost the same explicitly which means that Jordan's choice was made based on implicit/ opportunity cost factors.

These undisclosed factors led to Jordan valuing option B more than the other options which is why it was picked even thought they all cost the same. Had any other option being more valuable than B, it would have been picked but since B was picked, B was the most valuable.
