Explanation:

Implicit costs are the opportunity costs or costs of doing the next best alternative where as explicit costs are the direct accounting costs associated with an activity.

The rental income Darnell could receive if he chose to rent out his showroom is the implicit cost as this is an alternative he can chose against piano business.

The wages and utility bills that Darnell pays are the explicit costs as they are direct accounting costs of running the piano business.

The salary Darnell could earn if he worked as a financial adviser is the implicit cost as this is again the cost of an alternative.

The wholesale cost for the pianos that Darnell pays the manufacturer is the direct cost of goods sold and as such an explicit cost.

Accounting Profit = Revenue - Explicit costs

Accounting Profit = 723,000 - 423,000 - 267,000 = $33,000

Economic Profit = Revenue - Explicit Costs - Implicit Costs

Economic Profits = 723,000-423,000-267,000-2000-20,000 = $11,000

The economic profit earned from working as a financial adviser

Eco Profit as an adviser = 20000 + 2,000 - 33,000  = $ - 11,000

Since the Economic profit from working as an adviser is negative and less than that of selling pianos, it is profitable to stay in the piano business.

Hope that helps.
