Good try Oddman. Normal profits are implicit costs that a business owner must pay. These implicit costs are costs that come from using their owned resources. Unfortunately, I can't explain why economist classify 'normal profit' as a cost.

Because the consumer pays it, as they do any other cost component of the product or service.
