For Retail Price question....If Retail price is 12,995. Markup % is 12. what was the wholesale price?
Calculate it, Idiot.
Cost price * markup + tax = selling price
When you look at the cost of giving up something to get another thing you are looking at opportunity cost. You are estimating which option is better for you.
Opportunity Cost can vary depending on what you are giving up exactly.
When a financial decision is being made, the more choices you have will help determine the best opportunity. To calculate the opportunity cost, compare each opportunity based on a similar unit of measurement. This can be cash, weight, or products. Evaluate cost by hour, day, week, or year for each option. Evaluate each opportunity by what would be gained if you chose an alternative opportunity. Add up the costs associated with each opportunity. Make your choice based on which opportunity cost is higher.

Opportunity cost is what you give up in order to get something else. Paying money is the opportunity cost for ice cream for example.
opportunity cost
cost of what you give up to get it
Look up Production Possibility Frontier, it is the same thing as a Opportunity Cost Curve.
the opportunity cost of an item is what you give up to get that item. in this case, you want to see a movie, so you may have to give up the movie time to study or something else, that is your opportunity cost.
opportunity cost can have a value, especially if you are looking at such things as the college/job thing. If you go to college rather than take a job, your opportunity cost is the amount of money you lose from not working at the job. Opportunity cost does not always have to have a value. Again with the college/job example, if you take a job rather than go to college, your opportunity cost can be things like more education and college memories, etc. Opportunity cost is simply "what you give up". Therefore, if you are giving up money, your opportunity cost has a monetary value. If you are giving up education or experience or the like, your opportunity cost technically has no monetary value, but you are still giving something up. Hope that answers the question.
