Gomez runs a small pottery firm. He hires one helper at $16,500 per year, pays annual rent of $6,000 for his shop, and spends $22,500 per year on materials. He has $40,000 of his own funds invested in equipment (pottery wheels, kilns, and so forth) that could earn him $5,000 per year if alternatively invested. He has been offered $19,500 per year to work as a potter for a competitor. He estimates he could use his talents to earn an additional $5,500 per year in consulting fees if he were working full time as a potter. Total annual revenue from pottery sales is $89,000.Calculate the accounting profit and the economic profit for Gomez's pottery firm. Accounting profit = ?
Economic profit = ?

$44,000

$14,000

Explanation:

Accounting profit is total revenue less total explicit cost.

Accounting profit = Revenue - Explicit cost

Total explicit cost = $16,500 + $6,000 + $22,500 = $45,000

Total revenue = $89,000

Accounting profit = $89,000 - $45,000 = $44,000

Economic profit is accounting profit less implicit cost or opportunity cost.

Opportunity cost is the cost of the next best option forgone when one alternative is chosen over other alternatives.

Opportunity cost = $5,500 + $19,500 + $5,000 = $30,000

Economic profit = $44,000 - $30,000 = $14,000

I hope my answer helps you

answer; communities of interest; i believe this is correct, plz check first good luck;

it's actually a very difficult task, due to not many people can make 2 million dollars in 2 years. besides that, to the not-so-realistic ideas, you can create a business. it could be practically anything, but make it into a business that isn't that known yet, you get me? also, lets not forget about stock market. that's where all the good stuff happens. use investments at the beginning and begin to raise up your business or whatever you're going to do. as this is a very non-realistic idea, it's still worth the shot!
