Sunk costs vs opportunity costs when considering a new business system.

A common sunk cost fallacy is the tendency to keep investing in an outdated business system that no longer meets your needs because you have already invested a lot of time and money into it for many years - this time and money is a sunk cost, you cannot get it back.

By not switching to, (or even considering) a new system, that has the ability to improve efficiency and increase profitability, is an opportunity cost. What is the cost of that decision? What are you missing out on?

It is common for these sunk costs to affect your decision-making process when choosing a new business system. However, the opportunity costs is what you are missing out on by deciding not to consider, upgrade and implement a new system.
