Answer

The saving that would come from purchasing the wingtips and the aesthetic of the wingtips

Step-by-step explanation

The benefit and value of a good or service that must be given up to obtain something else is the opportunity cost. The benefit is missed when another choose is made over the other. I this case, the buyer include his or her taste and preferences in deciding to take the aldens type of shoe and leave the allen.
