    The value of this opportunity is $3,900,000

    Explanation:

    The value of opportunity here means the benefit which the contract provides to the Cronus Airline.

    Here Cronus Airline can purchase jet fuel up to 13,000,000 gallons at $2.00 per gallon which would otherwise cost Cronus Airline $2.3 at market rate.

    So the value of this opportunity would be calculated by =

    = (13,000,000 x $2.3) - (13,000,000 x $2.00)

    = 29,900,000 - 26,000,000

    = $3,900,000
