Production cost; opportunity cost

I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is the third option. The set of terms that would best represent it would be production cost and opportunity cost. The $15 would be the production cost since it is the amount to produce one pair of jeans. The latter would be opportunity cost since it referred to a benefit that a person could have received, but gave up, to take another course of action.
