    accounting cost (explicit) $13

    economic cost (explicit and implicit) $43

    Explanation:

    The total accounting cost will e $13 spend on the movie and popcorn

    But, if we consider the implicit cost, which are the lost wages for not working:

    3 hours x $10 dollar per hour = $30 dollar

    we add this to the accounting cost and get the economic cost of $43
