    The correct answer is option A.

    Explanation:

    Chad runs a coffee shop that has annual revenues of $300,000, supply costs of $60,000, and employee salaries of $60,000.

    He can rent out the coffee shop for $80,000 per year.

    He has three outside offers from competitors to work as a senior barista at Starbucks for an annual salary of $30,000, at Simon's coffee house for an annual salary of $40,000, and at Pete's coffee shop for an annual salary of $60,000.

    The profit from coffee shop

    = Total revenue - Total cost

    = $300,000 - ($60,000 + $60,000)

    = $300,000 - $120,000

    = $180,000

    The income if he rents coffee shop and starts working as Barista at highest paying coffee shop

    = $80,000 + $60,000

    = $140,000

    Since, the profit is higher in running the coffee shop, Chad should continue to run his coffee shop.
