Answer:

$4,455

Explanation:

The computation of total decrease in earnings (pretax) in Morris Dec. 31, 2021, income statement is given below:-

Interest expense upto 31 Dec 2021 = (Total present value of lease payment - Lease payment on July 1, 2021) × 6% × 6 ÷ 12

= ($58,500 - $7,500) × 6% × 6 ÷ 12

= $51,000 × 6% × 6 ÷ 12

= $1,530

Depreciation expense upto 31 Dec 2021 = Fair value of equipment ÷ Useful life × 6 ÷ 12

= $58,500 ÷ 10 × 6 ÷ 12

= $5,850 × 6 ÷ 12

= $2,925

So, the total decrease in earnings (pretax) in Morris Dec. 31, 2021, income statement = Interest expense upto 31 Dec 2021 + Depreciation expense upto 31 Dec 2021

= $1,530 + $2,925

= $4,455

7                  $125,000                     $325,000

8                  $125,000                     $200,000

John Jones owns and manages a café in Collegetown whose annual revenue is $5,000. Annual expenses are as follows:
OleMash [197]

Answer:

a.) $750

b.) Yes, the café is making an economic profit of $25 per year.

Yes, he should stay in the café business.

c.) No, the café is making an economic loss of $75 per year

No, he should not stay in the café business.

d.)$3,250

e.) $250

Explanation:

a) John's accounting profit is his revenue minus his explicit costs:$5,000 - $4,250 = $750

b) In this case, John's opportunity cost of running the café is $725 per year ($1,000 − $275 = $725). Thus, the café is making an economic profit of $25 per year ($5,000 − $4,250 − $725 = $25). Since the café is earning an economic profit, John should stay in the café business.

c) In this case, John's opportunity cost of running the cafe is $825 per year ($1,100 − $275 = $825). Thus, the cafe is earning an economic loss of $75 per year ($5,000 − $4,250 − $825 = −$75). Since the café is earning an economic loss, John should not stay in the café business.

d) John's accounting profit equals his revenue minus his explicit costs. If he doesn't need a loan, then his explicit costs equal $3,250. So, his accounting profit equals $1,750 (= $5,000 − $3,250).

e) To earn a normal profit, the café would have to cover all its implicit and explicit costs. The opportunity cost of John's time is $1,000 per year while the café's accounting profit is only $750 per year. Thus, the café would have to earn additional revenues of $250 per year in order for John to make a normal profit.
