Suppose your current job pays you $250,000 a year. However, you
are considering starting your own company. Based upon your
research, you estimate your first year
total revenue to be $6,500,000. There are however several costs of
running the
company during this first year, such as the cost of materials which
will equal $1,800,000, employees who will receive in total
$1,500,000, utilities which will cost $1,300,000, and rent that
will be paid to the landlord that equals $1,700,000. Based on this
information, solve for both your accounting profit and economic
profit during this first year. Also, state whether you are better
off starting this company or staying in your current job.
