3. The Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) that represents the production possibilities for goods X and Y if there are constant opportunity cost is drawn below:
Here, the Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) is a straight line since the opportunity cost is constant where we move from one good to another good and hence the slope of the line is also constant. The slope of the line is constant only when the line is a straight line and not a curved line.
The Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) that represents advancement in technology that makes it possible to produce more of X but not more of Y is drawn below:
Where there is a technological advancement where we can produce more of X but not more of Y, the PPF shifts from line AB to line AC. The production of Y remains constant at A but with the advancement in technology, the production of X shifts from point B to C.
The Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) that represents advancement in technology that makes it possible to produce more of Y but not more of X is drawn below:
Where there is a technological advancement where we can produce more of Y but not more of X, the PPF shifts from line BC to line AC. The production of X remains constant at C but with the advancement in technology, the production of Y shifts from point B to point A.

A the production possibilities frontier (PPF) is bowed outward as a result of 1)constant opportunity costs. 2)increasing opportunity costs. 3)decreasing opportunity costs. 4)scarcity. 5)choice.
Use the production possibilities frontier (PPF) to demonstrate economic growth. 1. With consumption goods on one axis and capital goods on the other, show how the combination of goods selected this period affects the PPF in the next period. 2. Extend this comparison by choosing a different point on this period’s PPF and determining whether that combination leads to more or less growth over the next period.
Consider two points on the production possibilities frontier point X, at which there are 100 cars and 78 trucks, an point Y, at which there are 90 cars and 70 trucks. If the economy is currently at point X the opportunity cost of moving to point Y is? a. 12 cars. b. I trucks. c. 10 cars. d. 79 trucks. e, none of the above. 12. The production possibilities frontier represents the possible combinations of two goods that an economy...
The accompanying graph contains the production possibilities frontier (PPF) for Rubberland. Rubberland only makes two products, rubber band balls and rubber hoses, and on a given day can produce according to the PPF in the graph. Point A on the PPF represents the combination of the two goods Rubberland currently produces. When a new method of rubb productivity of all Rubberland's inputs increases. Please shift the PPF to show this change Assume that Rubberland does not make more rubber band...

Rubberland only makes two products, rubber band balls and rubber hoses, and on a given day can produce according to the PPF in the graph. Point A on the PPF represents the combination of the two goods Rubberland currently produces. When a new method of rubber processing is discovered, the productivity of all Rubberland's inputs increases. Please shift the PPF to show this change. Assume that Rubberland does not...
