Answer:

b) the ski lift ticket her parents have already purchased for her

Explanation:

Opportunity Cost is always included in decision making. It is said to be the amount or value of the best alternative that is forgone e.g. choosing Dubia over Vegas, the opportunity cost is that which is lost or forgone from not picking Vegas.
