Pat used to work as an aerobics instructor at the local gym earning $35,000 a year. Pat quit that job and started working as a personal trainer. Pat makes $50,000 in total annual revenue. Pat's only out-of-pocket costs are $12,000 per year for rent and utilities, $1,000 per year for advertising and $3,000 per year for equipment. For Pat to earn normal profit, Pat’s accounting profit would have to be ______.

Respuesta :

Answer:

$34,000

Explanation:

Accounting profit = Total revenue - Explicit costs

i.e Total revenue = $50,000

     Explicit costs = $12,000 + $1,000 + $3,000 = $16,000

Therefore; $50,000 - $16,000 = $34,000.
