Answer:
option (a) is correct.
Explanation:
Economic profits refers to the profits which comes out after deducting the implicit costs and explicit costs from the total revenue.
Whereas the accounting profits takes into the effect of explicit costs only.
Implicit cost refers to the loss of money income by choosing some other alternative. It is also known as the opportunity cost.
Explicit costs refers to the costs that are incurred for operating or running a business.
Accounting profit = Total revenue - Explicit costs
Economic profit = Total revenue - Explicit costs - Implicit costs
Therefore, if the implicit costs are greater than zero then the economic profits is less than the accounting profits.

Answer:
D. $285,000
Explanation:
When a company is acquired by another company, the parent company (the new owner) must report the assets at fair market value - amortization.
FV = $300,000
amortizable value = $100,000
depreciation for 3 years (2017, 2018 and 2019) = ($100,000 / 20) x 3 = 415,000
reported value = $300,000 - $15,000 = $285,000
