After the first year, your accountant informs you that you made $45,000 and out of that you paid $6,000 for health insurance. What was your opportunity cost? If your opportunity cost is higher than you would like, how can you lower your opportunity cost in the future years? $50,000 salary + $15,000 (30% benefits) = $65,000 Your business: $45,000 + $6,000 = $51,000 $65,000 – $51,000 = $14,000 Opportunity cost is $14,000 2 APA formatted with citations if you write the basics I can figure out the rest
