A trade-off involves a sacrifice that must be made to get a certain product or experience. A person gives up the opportunity to buy 'good B,' because they want to buy 'good A' instead. For a person going to a baseball game, their economic trade-off is the money and time spent at the ballpark, as compared to the alternative of watching the game at home and saving their money, plus the time spent driving to the ball game.]]> 2016-11-29 03:29:42 UTC https://padlet.com/brownshaquille95/bc3el7nri3x0/wish/140396244 Difference Between Opportunity Cost and Trade Off brownshaquille95 https://padlet.com/brownshaquille95/bc3el7nri3x0/wish/140399021 Opportunity Cost and trade off are two different concepts but they're two sides of the same coin. Trade-off is sacrificing a certain option to another opportunity where opportunity cost is the selection result of the opportunity's. Opportunity cost refers the next valuable opportunity. Trade off is a concept that refers to two opportunities or more with choice.

By reducing this fraction down, we can say the opportunity cost of producing one car is two computers. As you can see, it takes more time and resources to produce a car than it does a computer, and the production possibilities model will show us this visually.]]> 2016-11-29 04:24:37 UTC https://padlet.com/brownshaquille95/bc3el7nri3x0/wish/140400563 Trade-Offs and Opportunity Cost brownshaquille95 https://padlet.com/brownshaquille95/bc3el7nri3x0/wish/140406391 Trade-offs create opportunity cost, one of the most important concepts in economics. Whenever you make a trade-off, the thing that you do not choose is your opportunity cost. Everything has opportunity costs. If you just bought something, you could have always chosen to buy something else instead.]]> 2016-11-29 06:01:01 UTC https://padlet.com/brownshaquille95/bc3el7nri3x0/wish/140406391 Opportunity Cost brownshaquille95 https://padlet.com/brownshaquille95/bc3el7nri3x0/wish/140407284 Even though they do not appear on a balance sheet or income statement, opportunity costs are real. By choosing between two courses of action, you assume the cost of the option not taken. Since opportunity costs frequently relate to future events, they are often difficult to quantify. Most people will overlook opportunity costs.
