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 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...
