| Opportunity cost is the cost of giving up something for something else. An example might be if a person spends money on cable TV instead of putting the money in savings. The opportunity cost would be that money in savings plus all the money earned on the interest on that money. So this is the real value that must be considered when spending the money on one item versus another.
