The estimate cost of Steffany taking the 2-year programme isl the increamental cost (i.e. addition expenses to be paid for for the 2-year programme) plus the opportunity cost (i.e. her incomes forgone in 2 years) Increamental costs: ($4,200+$10,000+$800)x2 years = $30,000 Opportunity costs: $1,400 x 24 months = $33,600 Increamental cost + opportunity cost = $30,000 + $33,600 = $63,600 The estimate cost of Steffany taking the two year programme is $63,600
其他解答:
The opportunity cost will be twenty four month part time salary. 1400 x 24 = 33600.
