Answer: $36,000

Explanation:

Amount from personal saving balance = $5000

Annual interest rate on saving = 1%

Annual revenue fro selling cookie jar = $90,000

Explicit cost of cookie jar materials = $54,000

Amount to be earned as a tax preparer = $6000

Accounting profit = Total revenue - Explicit cost

Accounting profit = $90,000 - $54,000

Accounting profit = $36,000
