A firm had sales revenue of $1 million last year. It spent $600,000 on labor, $150,000 on capital and $200,000 on materials. Furthermore, the firm's factory sits on land owned by the firm that could be rented out for $30,000 per year. Calculate this firm's accounting profit and economic profit. Make sure to specify what would be explicit costs and what would be implicit costs.

A firm had sales revenue of $1 million last year. It spent $600000 on labor, $150000 on capital and$200000 on materials. What was the firm’s accounting profit?
Variable costs are Multiple Choice costs that remain to be paid even if the firm shuts down temporarily. costs that change every day or every month. costs that change with the level of production. changes in total cost due to the production of an additional unit of output.
Suppose you own an acre of land. You could grow crops on that land. The cost of seeds is $100. The crops you grow from those seeds will sell for $350. You could also rent the land to another farmer. The rent you could eam is $300. Calculate your economic profit. (Do not include a $ sign in your answer.) Answer: Suppose the total cost function for a firm is given by: TC= 100 + 2q +0.5q2. Find the marginal cost function and then use that to determine the marginal cost of the 10th unit. (Do not include a $ sign in your response.) # Answer:
