Answer:
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.
