O ou LOI- If you were to graph the production possibilities frontier (PPF) with military output on the horizontal axis, and civilian goods and services on the vertical axis, and if the PPF were curved, where would you expect the opportunity cost of military output to be highest? A Where the PPF intersects the horizontal axis B. Where the PPF intersects the vertical axis Nowhere in particular, because the opportunity cost is constant At the point on the PPF where...
Bill can produce either tables or chairs. Bill can work up to 10 hours a day. His production possibilities are given in the table below: 1. Construct the production possibilities frontier (PPF) for Bill. Put tables on the Horizontal axis and chairs on the vertical axis. 2. What is Bill’s opportunity cost of producing one additional table? 3. What is Bill’s opportunity cost of producing one additional chair? 4. Currently Bill is producing 20 tables and 40 chairs. a. Is...
