Poll: In your opinion, how much profit does a jewelry sales site make from selling a jewelry online?
Tanya imports sweaters from Peru and sells them from her home. She collects $400,000 in revenue a year, and spends $200,000 on the sweaters and shipping costs, as well as $25,000 on accounting services and utilities. She used to make $100,000 per year working for an advertising agency. Now she works out of the basement of her house, for which she doesn’t have any other marketable use. She has no other expenses.
Tanya’s economic profit is:
A. -$25,000
B. $100,000
C. $75,000
D. $175,000
I know that accounting profit is $175,000 and the equation for economic profit is economic profit = accounting profit - opportunity cost.
I’m just unsure which counts as opportunity cost bc my answer is not one of the choices ><
THANKS!
SORRY!!
The TITLE of the question is wrong...i meant ECONOMIC PROFIT!
Fipping houses for profit has been the latest “trend”, especially on TV and they make it out to be so easy; find it, flip it, sell it, $$$.
However, I was under the impression that you have to pay a Capital Gain Tax on the profit of the sale, which is never mentioned on TV. Is this true or is there ways around it?

I was just looking for a number to call to cancel because all of the numbers i found are useless. The number they have in the terms and conditions is useless, i asked the lady to cancel my easy google profits account, and she gave me another number that was disconnected. Nice, huh? Does anyone have a real number that can help me cancel this scam?
