    Explicit cost = $95,000

    Explanation:

    Explicit cost = the cost which is actually incurred and paid in cash, it does not include any opportunity cost foregone, as no direct cash payment is involved in that case.

    Here explicit cost of business = Rent paid + Raw material purchased + Utilities

    = $36,000 + $35,000 + $24,000 = $95,000

    Note: Explicit cost does not consider the revenue generated as this is only the cash paid for expenses.

    Explicit cost = $95,000
