Answer:

The answer is: $40,000

Explanation:

Chris's opportunity cost of working as a consultant instead of working as a business manager (her old job) is $40,000. So in order for Chris to earn normal profit, the difference between his revenue and his combined explicit (e.g. rent, assistant's salary) and implicit costs (opportunity cost) is zero.
