QUESTION: Explain the concept of opportunity cost and the Law of Diminishing Returns. How are they related? Why economists use the concept of opportunity cost when they want to determine cost rather than the traditional view of cost, i.e., cost out of pocket? Illustrate with an original and relevant example these concepts and how they are related. You must explain these concepts in your own words and use an original and relevant example.
