Answer:

Accounting cost= $65,000.

Economic cost = $99,000

Explanation:

<em>Accounting costs </em><em>represent all amount spent on transactions for the purchase of generate revenue. These are also known as </em><em>explicit costs</em>

Accounting cost for Joe =

40,000 + 25,000 = $65,000.

<em>Economic costs</em><em> on the other hand capture all accounting costs together with opportunity costs. </em><em>Opportunity cost i</em><em>s the value of the next best alternative sacrificed in favor of a decision. Opportunity cost is also known as i</em><em>mplicit cost</em>

The opportunity cost for Joe includes

$10,000 reduction in salary he forfeited to start his business i.e ($50,000 - $40,000)

$24,000 rent he no longer receives .

Total opportunity cost = $10,000 +$24,000 = $34,000

Hence economic cost =  

= $65,000 + $34,000

=$99,000
