Use the following information to answer question. Madelyn owns a small pottery factory. She can make 1,000 pieces of pottery per year and sell them for $100 each. It costs Madelyn $20,000 for the raw materials to produce the 1,000 pieces of pottery. She has invested $100,000 in her factory and equipment: $50,000 from her savings and $50,000 borrowed at 10 percent (assume that she could have loaned her money out at 10 percent, too). Madelyn can work at a competing pottery factory for $40,000 per year. Required:
The economic profit at madelyn's pottery factory is:

$30,000

Explanation:

According to the scenario, computation of the given data are as follows,

Total number of pieces per year = 1,000

Selling price per piece = $100 per piece

So, Total revenue = $100 × 1,000 = $100,000

Raw material = $20,000

Investment = $100,000

So, interest on investment = 10% × $100,000 = $10,000

Opportunity cost = $40,000

So, we can calculate the economic profit by using following formula,

Economic profit = Total revenue - Raw material - interest on investment - Opportunity cost

By putting the value, we get

Economic profit = $100,000 - $20,000 - $10,000 - $40,000

= $30,000
