Answer:

b. −1,002.5

Explanation:

economic profit = accounting profit - opportunity costs

  • accounting profit = revenue - maintenance and insurance = $96,000 - $30,240 = $65,760
  • opportunity costs = the lost salary as a computer programmer + money he could earn by selling the land lot and investing = $48,000 + ($395,000 x 4.75%) = $66,762.50

economic annual profit = $65,760 - $66,762.50 = -$1,002.50

Elena L [17]

Answer: $352,000

Explanation:

The information needed to calculate the cash and cash equivalent are:

Balance in checking account, Bank of the East = $ 382,000

The restricted cash included in the checking account = $49,000

Treasury bills = $19,000

We subtract the restricted cash from the balance in the checking account and then add it to the treasury bills. This will be:

= ($382,000 - $49,000) + $19,000

= $333,000 + $19,000

= $352,000
