Accounting profit

Revenue  Pizza-                      400000

Revenue beverage                 190000

Cost of sales

Pizza ingredients                     50000

Manager                                   75,000

Pizza baker (60000*3)             180000

Equipment                                 10000

Finance cost (50000*6%)         3000

Tuition fee                                  2000

Total expenses                        430000

Accounting Profit                                         160000

Implicit cost

Salary forgone                              80000

Rent forgone                                  12000

Interest on savings (110000*5%)  5500

Total                                               97,500

Economic profit      =(160000-97500)         =62500

I will advise John to return to the teaching Job as he earns more in salary than the economic profit of doing business.

The following transactions occur for the Hamilton Manufacturers.
Radda [10]

Answer:

The answer is stated below:

Explanation:

The accounting equation is as follows:

Assets = Liabilities + Stockholders' Equity

Analyzing the transactions:

1. The service is provided to customer on account, which result in increase in assets and the stockholders' equity

So,

Assets        =   Liabilities        +  Stockholders' equity

+ $4,000    = $0                     +  +$4,000

2. The equipment is purchased by signing a note, which result in increase in liability and also increase in the assets.

So,

Assets        =   Liabilities        +  Stockholders' equity

+ $10,500  =   +$10,500         + $0

3. Paid for the advertising, which result in decrease in cash as well as decrease in the equity of the company.

So,

Assets        =   Liabilities        +  Stockholders' equity

- $1,200    = $0                        +  -$1,200

denis23 [38]

Answer:

It should be greater than $36

Explanation:

The opportunity cost of working is the amount of money sacrificed or could have earned if the individual was not working. In this case, Claire has decided to go with her friend which means that the opportunity cost of not working is less than the benefits receives from going out. Because she is not working it means that the opportunity cost of working is more than 36 dollars, which is the income she could have earned in 3 hours.
