rent

rent
1. The cost of *leasing or hiring an asset. 2. In economic theory, the difference between the *return made by a *factor of production and the return required to keep the factor of production in its current use. For example, an auditor who earns a salary of $80,000 and who could take alternative employment as a teacher at $50,000 earns an economic rent of $30,000. Economic rent is usually only possible when there is a shortage of the supply of a factor of production.
