Opportunity Cost Clause Samples
The Opportunity Cost clause defines how the parties will account for the value of lost alternatives when making decisions or allocating resources under the agreement. In practice, this clause may require one party to compensate the other for benefits or profits forgone due to choosing one course of action over another, such as dedicating resources to a specific project instead of pursuing other ventures. Its core function is to ensure that the financial impact of missed opportunities is recognized and fairly addressed, thereby preventing disputes over indirect losses and promoting transparent decision-making.
