Economic profit is the difference between revenue and implicit cost. Implicit cost is the sum of out-of-pocket accounting cost and opportunity cost.

opportunity csot is the value of the benefit sacrificed in favour of a decision.

Economic profit = Accounting profit - opportunity cost

Opportunity cost for victor includes

1. The $100,000 per year which he would have earned had he invested the  money in a bond

2. The annual salary of $75000 he forfeited

Total opportunity cost = 100,000 + 75,000= $175,000

Economic profit = 150,000 -175,000 = -$25,000

To attain an economic profit of zero , the accounting profit ought to be the same at the opprotunity cost of $175,000

Economic profit = -$25,000    option c

Opportunity cost = $175,000  option d

Accounting profit to allow for zero economic profit = $175,000 Option c
