机会成本是将资源配置到一种用途而放弃的其它用途中最高的收益。

应该是B吧，看Dylan的收益+看Eric的成本=10+0=10

B
看Dylan的收益 = 50 - 40 = 10

应该是C吧。。 The definition of opportunity cost is the value of next-best alternative you forgone, if you go to see the performance of Eric Claption, the OC should be the cost of Dalyan's concert, which is $40~
my own oppinion.

B

10元才是收益

OC is the highest valued alternative that u give up to engage in the activity. 这里You are willing to pay 的$50就是opportunity cost. 我觉得是D.

B，
为了看Dylan愿意支付50元，即我对Dylan的效用评价为50元。但为了看Dylan我需要支付40元，因此我从看Dylan的演出中获得10元的效用。而看Eric的表演我需要放弃这10元的效用，故OC为10。

答案是10元。

absolutly is 40.we define oppotunity cost  is the value of the thing you give up. willing price is not a realistically
price, maybe we can use it in consumer surplus field.
