Answer: Accounting profit= $44,500
Economic Profit = $4,150
Explanation: <em>Accounting profit</em> are the profit earned by subtracting explicit cost from the total revenue earned.
<em>Economic profit</em> are profits lefts out after subtracting implicit (opportunity) cost and explicit ( monetary) costs. It is given by
In this case, the explicit cost include rental cost, office supplies, office staff and telephone expenses.
While, implicit cost include the 7% interest foregone on the $5000 savings and the salary foregone ($40,000) by choosing to startup a business than take up the job.

Answer:
A) R(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2
B) P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500
C) 80
D) 2300
E) 80
Explanation:
Given the following :
Price of suit 'x' :
p = 120 - 0.5x
Cost of producing 'x' suits :
C(x)=2500 + 0.25 x^2
A) calculate total revenue 'R(x)'
Total Revenue = price × total quantity sold, If total quantity sold = 'x'
R(x) = (120 - 0.5x) * x
R(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2
B) Total profit, 'p(x)'
Profit = Total revenue - Cost of production
P(x) = R(x) - C(x)
P(x) = (120x - 0.5x^2) - (2500 + 0.25x^2)
P(x) = 120x - 0.5x^2 - 2500 - 0.25x^2
P(x) = - 0.5x^2 - 0.25x^2 + 120x - 2500
P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500
C) To maximize profit
Find the marginal profit 'p' (x)'
First derivative of p(x)
d/dx (p(x)) = - 2(0.75)x + 120
P'(x) = - 1.5x + 120
-1.5x + 120 = 0
-1.5x = - 120
x = 120 / 1.5
x = 80
D) maximum profit
P(x) = - 0.75x^2 + 120x - 2500
P(80) = - 0.75(80)^2 + 120(80) - 2500
= -0.75(6400) + 9600 - 2500
= -4800 + 9600 - 2500
= 2300
E) price per suit in other to maximize profit
P = 120 - 0.5x
P = 120 - 0.5(80)
P = 120 - 40
P = $80
Answer:
C. 11.05%
Explanation:
The computation of the cost of capital under the proposed leveraging is shown below;
cost of capital is
=Debt÷ value of leverged firm × ((unlevered cost of capital × (1 - tax rate))
=800 ÷ 1600 × ((13% + (13%) × (1 - 30%)))
= 11.0500%
hence, the cost of capital is 11.05%
