Question

The gas station on the edge of town has gas that is 30c/gallon cheaper than my local station. I buy 10 gallons of gas a week. Assume that I value my time at $10 per hour and it takes me 1/2 hour to drive to and from the faraway station. For simplicity, assume the travel cost to the local station is zero miles and damage/depreciation of my car is trivial on the trip to the faraway station. Should I buy my gas at the faraway station

Answer 1

No

Step-by-step explanation:

Because its better u save 0.3*10=3 dollars but I value my time for $5 for that half an hour and hence its better not to go considering opportunity cost.
