Accounting profit refers to the excess revenue after subtracting the total cost from the total revenue. The revenue can be calculated as follows:

Revenue=1000×15×30=450000

Thus, the revenue is $450000. The explicit cost is given as $150000. Therefore, the accounting profit can be calculated as follows:

Accounting profit=RevenueExplicit cost=450000150000=300000
