What spark started world war 1 by setting off the power keg of nationalism that has been building in europe in the period prior to 1914? a. the unplanned explosion at an armory in the bosnian capital of sarajevo b. the assassination of king albert i of belgium during an austrian excursion c. the inadvertent firing of shots by a serbian soldier on german troops d. the assassination of archduke franz ferdinand of austria.

the correct answer is “opportunity cost”. opportunity cost is what a company misses out because it decided in one option over another one. in this case, the company decided to invest in building a factory so it gave up another possible benefit or profit in order to achieve success with the factory.  

trade-off is not the correct answer since it is a situation in which you accept losing something in return for benefits in other areas.

and finally, consequence is a general term used to accept what it comes when you make a decision. it can be a positive or negative consequence depending if the decision you took was the correct one.
