Economic profits equals total revenues minus the sum of explicit costs and implicit costs. Since explicit costs are already subtracted when arriving at the accounting profit, we can find economic profit by subtracting the implicit costs from the accounting profit.
It is considerably easier to account for investments under the cost method than the equity method, given that the cost method only requires initial recordation and a periodic examination for impairment. Cost Method Example. ABC International acquires a 10% interest in Purple Widgets Corporation for $1,000,000.n the most recent reporting period, Purple recognizes $100,000 of net income and issues dividends of $20,000. Under the requirements of the cost method, ABC records its initial investment of $1,000,000 and its 10% share of the $20,000 in dividends. ABC does not make any other entries.
