Sales revenue = 115,000
Cost for rent, raw materials, electricity and others = 80,000
These costs are called as accounting or explicit cost. The costs that paid to outsiders and other factors of production.
Aunt used to work in a local corporation. She gave up the work where she was getting 22,000
Your auncle too is loosing additional income of 15,000 by working in the store every evening.
So your uncle and aunts opportunity costs that lost by starting the business is 37,000 (22,000+15,000)
This called as implicit cost. The benefit of own investment and own services that is sacrificed.
a. What accounting profit?
Accounting profit = Total Revenue – Accounting Cost
Accounting profit = 115,000 – 80,000 = 35,000
b. Economic Cost
Economic Cost = Accounting Cost + Implicit Cost
Economic Cost = 80,000 + 37,000 = 117,000
c. What is economic Profit
Economic Profit = Total Revenue – Economic Cost
Economic Profit = 115,000 – 117,000 = (2,000)
There is an economic loss of 2,000
d. What would you recommend?
The recommendation is that they should NOT continure the business for the next year. As they are not able to recover the implicit cost, they should not continue the business for the next year.
