For spring break, Melanie will either stay home or go to Daytona Beach. At home, Melanie pays $10 per day for food and earns $90 a day at her job. At Daytona Beach, Melanie will stay with friends and so has no lodging cost. She will pay $20 per day for food. In terms of dollars, Melanie's opportunity cost per day of going to Daytona Beach is how much

Respuesta :

Answer:

$100

Explanation:

Opportunity cost or implicit is the cost of the option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives

If Melanie goes to the beach, she would not be able to stay at home. Staying at home is the opportunity cost of going to the beach.

The total opportunity cost of going to the beach = $10 + $90 = $100
