Answer:

Profit; $35,000

Explanation:

Given: Insurance paid= $ 32000.

          Wages paid= $408000.

         Paid for supplies= $23000.

         Opportunity cost= $32000

         Revenue= $460000.

Now, computing the economic profit.

Economic profit= [tex]Revenue- explicit\ cost- Opportunity\ cost[/tex]

⇒ Economic profit= [tex]460000- (32000+408000+23000)-32000[/tex]

⇒ Economic profit= [tex]460000-463000-32000[/tex]

Economic profit= [tex]\$ 35000[/tex]

Economic profit is the amount of difference between revenue received and explicit expense of the company, while calculating economic profit, we also deduct opportunity cost from revenue earned.
