Explain the difference between a direct cost and an opportunity cost. Illustrate the difference of these costs by sharing one (1) out-of-pocket cost and one (1) opportunity cost for two decisions you made today. The decisions you choose to share can be anything, from your decision to drive to work versus riding a bike, or even the decision you made on where to have lunch.

Use the information in the table to answer the below question.                       Production Possibilities Frontier         Number of hours worked   Total benefit   Total cost       0        0     0 10    300 100 20    550 210 30    750 340 40    900 500 50 1,000 700   Christian delivers pizza using his own car and is paid according to numbers of boxes that he delivers. Use marginal analysis to determine the optimal number of hours that he should work.

Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) - This graph shows the maximum combination of two goods that an economy can produce, given its resources and technology. It is used to illustrate the concept of opportunity cost and to explain the trade-offs that must be made when choosing how to allocate resources. Show this graph with an example please.

For each of the following, identify the opportunity cost involved: ⦁ Harry went to the club the night before his econ exam and scored a 50 instead of the usual 75 he scores.

QUESTION 9 Oliver is writing CML assessment questions for two introductory economics courses at UQ (ECON1010 and ECON1020), and currently finds himself with a 4-hour period in which he can complete either task. Oliver's production possibilities curve for the next 4 hours is shown below. 16 ECON1010 (questions) 12 8 0 1 1 12 1 1 1 24 36 48 ECON1020 (questions) What is Oliver's opportunity cost of writing (producing) a single ECON1020 question? Answer to the nearest two decimal places. [a] ECON1010 questions.

3) What is the opportunity cost of taking this Intro to Microeconomics course at NYU?What is the opportunity cost of attending class? Remember to consider explicit and implicit costs.

Specify and explain the typical shapes of marginal-benefifit and marginal-cost curves. How are these curves used to determine the optimal allocation of resources to a particular product? If current output is such that marginal cost exceeds marginal benefifit, should more or fewer resources be allocated to this product? Explain.

What is part of the opportunity cost of borrowing a textbook from the library instead of buying it, when I am already a member of the library? The annual fee for library membership. The wage I could have earned in the time I visited the library. It has no opportunity cost if I have a subscription for the channel. The price of the book. It is a very difficult problem to understand. It depends on what we think, so please give us a definite answer with specific explanation. Personally, If the man buys the book instead of borrowing book from the library, he can save that time to use it for the work so that he can earn his wage.

Is this a good example of an opportunity cost? “To begin, I began selling prints of my pictures in 2019 throughout 2020. It's now closed. USPS and UPS were the options I had during this period to ship out orders. At the moment I didn’t have enough knowledge about USPS, so I chose to ship my prints via UPS rather than USPS. My orders weren’t delivered on time and upon arrival, the prints were damaged, and I spent a large amount of money shipping these orders out. The opportunity cost is the cost of USPS shipping.”
