    Jasmine's opportunity cost: "missing out on playing basketball".

    As Jasmine has chosen to work in the supermarket, this should be the option that provides a higher benefit to her.

    The opportunity cost is referred to the benefits you are missing out, related to the main alternative you have rejected in order to make your choice. In Jasmine's case this is represented by missing out the time she would have dedicated to basketball if she was not working in that supermarket.
