Respuesta :

Answer: $35,000

Explanation:

Implicit costs can be described as opportunity cost : the cost that could have accrued to a resource owned by a firm if it had been put to another use.

Ralph could have earned $35,000 if he were employed elsewhere. Therefore, the $35,000 is the opportunity cost of owning his pizza hut. It is the implicit cost.

The other costs in the question are explicit costs.
