Answer: $105,000
Explanation:
Maynard's economic cost is the sum of both his implicit and explicit costs.
Explicit costs are the normal accounting costs of running a business which in this case are supplies and employee salaries.
Implicit costs are the opportunity costs which means that this is the benefit foregone from another alternative for the current decision one has made. In this case that would be the $60,000 Menard could have been making from his high school teaching job had he not quit to prepare students for the SATs.
Economic costs;
= Explicit + Implicit costs
= 30,000 + 15,000 + 60,000
= $105,000
