Answer #1

Answer: explicit cost : it is the actual cost which we pay or occurs during the business like cost of raw materials, machinery, rent, wages employees and other payments.

Implicit cost: it is not the actual cost but an opportunity cost which we have to forgo in order to choose one option over the other or one business (job) opportunity over the other opportunities.

     If we are planning to open a lemonade stand than the costs involved are:

· Explicit cost: cost of raw materials like lemon, sugar, salt etc., cost of buying stand and expenditures on taking permission from local government (if any ) to open the stall etc.

Implicit cost : it will include the cost of other opportunities which we are giving up to choose this business.
