Describe the potential costs of both scarcity and choice.

Scarcity: the inability of economic actors to satisfy their wants and need to make trade-offs to achieve their optimal outcome. Opportunity cost: the highest-valued alternative action forgone as the result of taking an action. Link: scarcity implies all wants cannot be met. To meet our wants, we make trade-offs. Trade-offs involve opportunity costs because we must sacrifice alternatives outcomes for the rational (optimal outcome). Therefore, opportunity costs are the price we pay to trade-off in the condition of scarcity.

No, scarcity, choice and opportunity are not related to cost. All of these aspects of business are related to availability. Sometimes, costs plays a role though.

As economic goods are limited, one has to make choices to satisfy his needs. Thus, due to limited economic goods, opportunity costs rise.
This is the basic economic problem: Infinite Wants--> Finite Resources--> Scarcity-->Choice--> Opportunity costs So the problem is: How can we allocate resources efficiently, knowing that they are an infinite number of wants (but fewer needs) and there are only a limited amount of resources, which are scarce. Because there is scarcity (deficit/lack of supply of resources), people are left with a choice: That choice is an opportunity cost. Opportunity costs is the cost/disadvantage that occurs from choosing the next-best-alternative because of scarcity. an example: the government wants to build a new highway, but ther land is scarce( there is not enough land), and so, the opportunity cost is to build a new public school. The opportunity cost is the efficiency and accesibilty of transportation. The next-best-alternative is usually chweaper but is in less quality/quantity than the initial good or service. So basically, because of scarcity, consuimers and producers have to make a choice: whose wants need to be satisfied? what is more important?
