    Answer: 7.1 92000

    7.2 70000

    7.3 30000

    7.4 - 40000

    Explanation:

    7.1 Explicit cost means the cost which occurs to meet the expenses for the business operations

    The explicit cost is calculated below.

    Wages and salaries 700000

    Interest on bank loan 50000

    Cost supplies 150000

    Depreciation 20000

    Total Explicit cost $920000

    7.2 Implicit cost means the opportunity cost that is foregone by investing in other type of investment. Implicit cost is not incurred by the business actually.

    Risk free return 30000

    Risk premium 40000

    Total Implicit cost $70000

    *7.3 The difference between the cost and the revenue provides the accounting profit of the firm.

    Accounting Profit

    = Revenue - Explicit Cost

    =950000 - 920000

    Total accounting profit firm = $30000

    7.4 Economic profit means the profit arrived by the firm after deducted the total of explicit and implicit cost.

    Economic Profit

    =Revenue - (Explicit Cost + Implicit Cost)

    =950000 - (920000 + 70000)

    Total Economic Loss incurred = $-40000
