Vicky Torres and Juanita Alva were the first in line at Best Buy during a Black Friday sale so that they could secure a large-screen TV, which was normally $499 and was advertised on sale at $199. Because they arrived three weeks early, they ended up waiting in line for a total of 500 hours! The authors of your textbook found their choice puzzling because of the high opportunity cost in this scenario. The authors say: "Saving $300 by spending 500 hours makes Vicky and Juanita's time worth 60 cents an hour. They could have spent 30 hours working an extra job at $10 an hour and each earned enough money to purchase the TV at full price-and still had 470 hours to do other things. In short, they don't seem to have been aware of the opportunity cost of waiting in line." But this is not the only conclusion one can draw from Vicky and Juanita's behavior. Choose the conclusion below that would be consistent with the idea that Vicky and Juanita were aware of the opportunity costs yet still found the three-week-wait to be worthwhile.
a. "However, they might have enjoyed the experience of camping out in line, meeting other customers, and gaining a degree of fame for their commitment to getting a good deal."
b. "Vicky and Juanita really enjoy their high paying jobs and don't like camping at all."
c. "If they are able to camp out for three weeks, they probably do not have full-time jobs, so earning 60 cents an hour is a good decision for the shoppers."
