    Answer: $ - 45,000

    Explanation:

    Economic profit = Accounting profit - Opportunity cost

    Accounting profit = Revenue - Cost

    Accounting profit = $20,000 - $5000 = $15,000

    Economic profit = $15,000 - $60,000 = $ - 45,000

    Opportunity cost is the cost of choosing one alternative over other alternatives.
