Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Cash paid for gas to run the lawnmower is an out-of-pocket cost because it is an expense that Joe would have to pay directly in order to mow the lawns. The use of his father's truck (A) could be considered an opportunity cost, as could the wages he could have earned at the grocery store (B). The time spent mowing the lawns (C) is also an opportunity cost, as it represents the time he could have spent doing something else if he wasn't mowing lawns.
