Cost Accounting Help?
Company X is a four year-old advertising agency that has grown rapidly in the last two years. The company specializes in marketing for professional and semi-professional sports teams, but in the last two years they have branched out to additional markets, such as fitness clothing, energy foods, and sports equipment.
Company X has been successful enough that they now have the option of buying out a competing advertising agency, Company Y. That company is a long-time leader in marketing in areas similar to Company X. However, they also have many clients in new markets.
What are the opportunity costs if Company X executives decided to acquire Company Y? What are the opportunity costs if Company X executives decide not to acquire Company Y? Why do you think considering opportunity costs is such an important part of business decision making?
Opportunity costs represents the next best use of the money to be invested in Company Y. In this case the opportunity costs of investing in Company Y would probably be further investment in sports team marketing, fitness clothing, energy foods and/or sports equipment. If the company decides not to invest in Company Y, then they are forgoing that opportunity, in which case the investment in Company Y may well have been the next best use of their money, thus… the investment in Company Y would be the opportunity cost of not investing in Company Y.
Good luck!
