Answer:

A. $1,020,000

B.$680,000

C.$340,000

D.$95,000

E.$245,000

Explanation:

A. Calculation for Jon’s total revenues

Using this formula

Jon's total revenue = Amount of fees per person × Number of persons

Let plug in the formula

Jon's total revenue = $1,200 × 850

Jon's total revenue=$1,020,000

B. Calculation for Jon’s explicit costs

Using this formula

Explicit costs = Amount of money that goes for instructors, maintenance, equipment,insurance, depreciation ×Number of persons

Let plug in the formula

Explicit costs= $800 ×850

Explicit costs =$680,000

C. Calculation for the his accounting profit

Using this formula

Accounting profit = Amount of Revenue - Explicit costs

Let plug in the formula

Accounting profit= $1,020,000 - $680,000 Accounting profit=$340,000

D. Calculation to List 2 in numbers 2 implicit costs that Jon has not included

Based on the information given we were told that he is foregoing an amount of $92,000 as wage and 1.5% interest on his amount of $200,000 which is a corporate bonds to start the business.

Hence

Jon total opportunity costs = $92,000 + (1.5%×$200,000)

Jon total opportunity costs = $92,000 +$3,000 Jon total opportunity costs=$95,000.

E. Calculation for Jon’s pure economic profit (or loss) in numbers

Using this formula

Economic profit = Accounting profit - opportunity costs

Let plug in the formula

Economic profit = $340,000-$95,000

Economic profit = $245,000
