    The opportunity cost of that decision is - $250,000

    Explanation:

    For computing the opportunity cost, we have to use the formula of opportunity cost which is shown below:

    = Return of project which is not chosen - the return of a chosen project

    = $750,000 - $1,000,000

    = - $250,000

    Since in the question, it is given that the chosen project is X so we write the project X amount in the formula and the not chosen project of-course is Y.

    Hence, the opportunity cost of that decision is - $250,000
