Answer:

Shen

Paolo's Implicit and Explicit Costs:

Implicit Costs:

a. The salary Paolo could earn if he worked as a financial advisor = $20,000

d. The rental income Paolo could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom = $2,000

Total implicit costs = $22,000

Explicit Costs:

b. The wages and utility bills that Paolo pays = $267,000

c. The wholesale cost for the guitars that Paolo pays the manufacturer = $423,000

Total explicit costs = $690,000

Explanation:

a) Data and Analysis:

Sales revenue from selling guitars per year = $723,000

Cost of goods sold = $423,000

Wages and Utility expenses = $267,000

Accounting profit = $33,000 ($723,000 - ($423,000 + $267,000))

Opportunity costs:

Annual rent to be received from showroom if rented out = $2,000

Salary as a financial advisor = $20,000

Economic profit = $11,000 ($33,000 - $22,000)
