Gams · Answer 2

The opportunity cost is the alternative that is rejected when making an economic decision. If Raj increased his production in the second day, it can be due to two reasons: he worked longer or he worked harder. In both cases he has refused to an alternative option.

If he worked more time, for example two hours, the opportunity cost would be the two hours that he could have dedicated to leisure activities If he worked harder, the opportunity cost would be rejecting to be less tired after work.
