Opportunity Cost - Some Numerical Examples as a Worksheet
11th August 2015
So, you're planning for your lessons for the start of the new term (because teachers do not take 6 weeks off during the summer, do they?) and your first topic is the Economic Problem and opportunity cost.
Of course, what makes this year different is that the Economics A Level teacher is now thinking about the use of quantitative methods all of the time (aren't you?). We know that 15% of the AS and 20% of the whole A level will assess the use of numeracy and interpretation of numbers, charts and graphs.
So, here we've got a very straightforward worksheet on opportunity cost that uses some numbers to illustrate the topic.
