Which of the following statements is correct?
a. opportunity costs equal explicit minus implicit costs.
b. economists consider opportunity costs to be included in a firm’s total revenues.
c. economists consider opportunity costs to be included in a firm’s costs of production.
d. all of the above are correct.

Option C

Explanation: The cost can be differentiated on the basis of subject matters as accounting cost and economic cost.

The accounting cost do not consider the opportunity cost while calculating the total cost but the economic cost does. As per the economics, total cost is the sum of explicit cost and implicit/ opportunity cost.

Explicit cost refers to the direct payment made to others while the implicit cost refers to the loss of choosing one alternative over other.

Hence from the above we can conclude that the correct option is C .

in 2001, dell computer became the world’s largest personal computer vendor, continuing to

gain market share and post profits in an industry struggling with slumping sales and billions of

dollars in losses. dell sells 90% of its pcs directly to the final customer, largely bypassing the

reseller channel that accounts for most of the world’s pc sales. this direct customer relationship

is the key to dell’s business model, and provides distinct advantages over the indirect sales

model. dell’s direct relationship with the customer allows it to tailor its offerings to customer

needs, offer add-on products and services, and use the internet to offer a variety of customer

services. in addition, dell’s pcs are built to customers’ specifications upon receipt of an order,

giving dell additional advantages over indirect pc vendors who must try to forecast demand and

ship products based on those forecasts. dell’s direct sales and build-to-order model has achieved

superior performance in the pc industry in terms of inventory turnover, reduced overhead, cash

conversion, and return on investment (kraemer, et al., 2000).
