When Mutual exclusive decision is to be made or projects to be selected, the benefit which is left due to selection of one project instead of other project is the 'Opportunity Cost' for selecting one project over other.

Example:

Project 1 benefit = 100000

Project 2 benefit = 200000

Opportunity cost for project 1 = 200000

Opportunity cost for project 2 = 100000
