IMPLICIT COST :intangible costs that are not easily accounted for.
Explicit Cost: Business expense which is easily identified and accounted for. like wages, rent
implicit costs A firm's use of its own capital. This is considered an implicit cost because the capital could have been rented to another firm instead. This rental income foregone, or the implicit rental rate of capital, is the firm's opportunity cost of using its own capital. This implicit rental rate can be broken down beyond interest forgone. * A firm's use of its owner's time and/or financial resources. * Economic depreciation.' Explicit cost An Explicit cost is an easy accounted cost, such as wage, rent and materials. It can be transacted in the form of money payment and is lost directly, as opposed to monetary implicit costs. Explicit cost are those which the entrepreneur has to pay from his own pocket. Explicit Costs require an outlay of money by the firm.
Explicit cost is one stated expressly and clearly identifiable, whereas implicit cost is there but understandable by implication only.
A job can be done by outside manpower supply or by the deployment of own staff.When the job is completed by outside manpower supply, we will pay as per manpower supply contract . This is explicit cost.
When done with our own staff.It also involves cost implicit in the form salary etc., payable to our staff. This is Implicit Cost.
Explicit costs are the expenses made by an industry for all facilities and materials during its running and these include expenditure such as places, wages for the laborers, and cost of raw materials, machinery purchases, advertising and rent.
implicit costs are the costs of the forgone occasions due to business decisions. For example a condition where a business owns a truck which it uses to transport its merchandises.
Explicit Cost: Expense that is contractual in nature and definite in amount, such as rent, salaries, wages, or utility bills. Explicit costs are easily recognizable for classification and recording.
Implicit Cost: The costs associated with an action's tradeoff. It is related to explicit costs, which represent the actual costs of an activity, and represents a cost that is not recorded but instead implied. For example, an employee could take a vacation and travel. The explicit costs would include travel expenses, the cost of a hotel room, and costs related to entertainment. The implicit costs relate to the tradeoff, namely the wages that the employee could have earned if the vacation was not taken.
As another example, not paying rent on the self-owned property (called implicit rent) is an implicit cost, because rent is a tax deductible expense but implicit rent is not. Similarly, implicit cost of liquid assets or stockholders' (shareholders') capital is the maximum interest that would be earned on them as a fixed deposit or as an investment in a mutual fund (unit trust). Implicit costs must be added to actual cash outlays to establish a true estimate of the cost of production or of running a business. Also called imputed cost, implied cost, or notional cost.
Implicit cost are the cost of using your firms resources the ones you already have. Explicit costs are expenses that a firm must make to outsiders for resources. Ex: Wages, materials, cost of raw materials etc.
thank you
Implicit cost is a cost that has occurred but it is not initially shown or reported as a separate cost. For example opportunity cost. On the other hand, explicit cost is one that has occurred and is clearly reported as a separate cost. Below are some examples to illustrate the difference between an implicit cost and an explicit cost.
