This paper investigates that how many Koreans who are interested in economics know the opportunity cost exactly. For this purpose, we analyzed all the right and wrong answers on the opportunity cost items that TESAT(Test of Economic Sense and Thinking) has accumulated for the past five years. TESAT is the first government-authorized test of its kind on the people’s economic literacy. As a result many people regard the opportunity cost as the implicit cost. The misunderstanding stems from the economic text books that contain the wrong explanations on the opportunity cost. A large portion of the books describes that the opportunity cost is the cost of any activity measured in terms of the best alternative forgone. But this is wrong definition. As is well known, the opportunity cost is the sum of the explicit cost and the largest net benefit forgone, which comes from the given-up alternatives. It is always bigger than the largest net benefit forgone. If we take the largest net benefit out of the many forgone into consideration, students take the implicit cost as the opportunity cost, not together with the explicit cost. Students think that there is only one net benefit among others.
