question

Mr. Brennan owns an open field adjacent to his house. The coach of the local high school football team offered Mr. Brennan $250 to rent the field from him for his team's summer football drills. Mr. Brennan could also grow vege-tables on the field. The cost of seed, fertilizer, and hiring neighborhood teenagers to plant and harvest the field he estimates would be $200 and Mr. Brennan expects to receive $500 if he sold the vegetables. What are the explicit and implicit costs to Mr. Brennan of growing vege-tables, and will he choose to grow vegetables or rent the field?
