Why do economists measure profit differently from accountants?

Advanced Placement (AP)

lianna [129]3 years ago

Accountants only concern themselves with direct costs which involve things like the cost of materials, rent, and labor for instance. This profit is aptly named "accounting profit".

Economists consider those costs as well, but they also include indirect costs such as opportunity costs of other investments. Recall that opportunity cost is the cost of what you give up if you make a certain decision.

For instance, if a car factory makes 4 door sedans, but it could be making more money with SUVs, then the opportunity cost is high and the economic profit is lower compared to the accounting profit.

uncharged particle located in the nucleus; the number of these that an atom has is equal to its mass number minus its atomic num
zzz [600]

The correct answer is Neutron

Explanation:

As shown in the diagram the sub-particles in atoms are electrons, neutrons, and protons. From these, the two types of particles that are in the nucleus or center of the atom are neutrons and protons. Moreover, neutrons differ from protons because these are neutral or are not charged. According to this, the uncharged particles in atoms are neutrons.

Moreover, the number of neutrons can be calculated by subtracting the atomic number (number of protons) to the mass number (number of atoms and protons). For example, if in an atom the mass number is 12 (protons and neutrons)and the atomic number is 6 (number of protons), the neutrons are 6 (12 - 6 = 6). According to this, the correct answer is the neutron.
