    A) $5,000

    Explanation:

    Given that she turned down three separate job offers with annual salaries of $30,000, $40,000 and $45,000 and earned $50,000 in accounting profit in the first year from her business.

    The most likely option she would have opted for in place of her own business would have been the job offer of $45,000.

    As such, Jacqui's economic profit from running her own business

    = $50,000 - $45,000

    = $5,000
