When the government provides the free commodity to the public then the opportunity cost is at zero.  

Explanation:

  • This is because a free good is available without limit and is not scarce. Free goods can be available in large quantities with zero opportunity costs.  
  • It could be some form of work or idea that does not have a cost to it. But at times a free good is not something that comes free.  
  • This can be proved by an example when a shop gives away a commodity free with the purchase of some goods.  
  • In this case, the free good has utilized certain resources during its production. Hence it did not come free.
