Habib withdrew $100,000 from his bank account paying 5% interest to purchase equipment for his construction company. If Habib earns an accounting profit of $10,000 and he has no other opportunity costs, his economic profit will be equal to

$5,000

Interest rate = 5%

Amount withdraw = $100,000

in fact, you have to perform the operation inside parentheses first, and then proceed in order:
