    Explicit costs are the ones that exist because there is an exchange of cash and are recorded in accounting calculations. The implicit costs are the ones that are not an exchange of cash and are not recorded in accounting calculations. The implicit costs are associated with the opportunity costs. The opportunity costs are the costs that someone have when they decide to do something and not doing another thing. In this case, Madeline decided to stop working for making her own business.

    The opportunity costs or implicit costs are:

    - The salary that Madeline could have earned

    - The interest that could have been earned on Madeline's savings

    The explicit costs are:

    - The cost of inventory

    -The cost of additional labor

    -The cost of the building rent
