Answer:

3.trade-offs associated with financial decisions.

Step-by-step explanation:

Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.

It is also known as implicit cost.

For example, a student chooses to go to grad school instead of working at a company where she would be paid $350,000 per year. Her opportunity cost of going to grad school is the $350,000 she would have earned if she decided to take the job instead.

I hope my answer helps you
