    Answer: Option C

    Explanation: In simple words, sunk cost refers to the cost that a company has already incurred and cannot recover it in future in any way for example - market research cost before introducing a product in the market.

    No matter whether the organisation takes the prospective project or not these costs are not recoverable, hence they are considered to be irrelevant with respect to decision making.

    Hence we can conclude that the correct option is C.
