What is Opportunity cost?

              

An opportunity cost represents an alternative given up when a decision is made. Every resource (land, money, time, etc.) can be put to alternative uses, every action, choice, or decision has an associated opportunity cost.
Opportunity costs are fundamental costs in economics, and are used in computing cost benefit analysis of a project.
