Answer:

Explanation:

Opportunity cost is the "cost" incurred by not enjoying the benefit associated with the best alternative choice.

Here the opportunity cost of playing professional football at $2 million a year is the coaching for $50,000 a year foregone.

The opportunity cost of quitting football and making movies is the $2 million income per year foregone on football.

Opportunity costs represent the benefits an individual, investor or business misses out on when choosing one alternative over another.
