    Study Notes

    Revenue

    • Milo sold 100 boxes of cookies at $10 per box
    • Total revenue: 100 x 10=10 = 10=1000

    Explicit Costs

    • Explicit costs are the direct costs of production, such as ingredients, packaging and labels.
    • Explicit costs: $700

    Implicit Costs

    • Implicit costs are opportunity costs. These are the costs of the resources the entrepreneur uses but doesn't pay for directly.
    • Milo's implicit cost includes lost wages while baking the cookies.
    • Implicit costs: 20 hours x 20perhour=20 per hour = 20perhour=400

    Accounting Profit

    • Accounting profit is calculated as total revenue minus explicit costs.
    • Accounting profit: 1000−1000 - 1000−700 = $300

    Economic Profit

    • Economic profit is calculated as total revenue minus both explicit and implicit costs.
    • Economic profit: 1000−1000 - 1000−700 - 400=−400 = -400=−100
