If a fishing boat owner brings 10,000 fish to market and the market price is $7 per fish, she will have $70,000 in total revenue. If the average variable cost of 10,000 fish is $4 and the fixed cost of the boat is $20,000, what is her profit

$10,000

Explanation:

Given that

Total revenue is $70,000

Total fixed cost is $40,000

And, the total variable cost is $10,000

According to the given situation, the computation of profit is shown below:-

Profit = Total Revenue - Total Fixed cost - Total variable cost

= $70,000 - (10,000 × $4) - 10,000

= $70,000 - 40,000 - 10,000

= $10,000

Therefore for computing the profit we simply applied the above formula.
