- Suppose you are stranded on an island. Luckily, this island is rich in clams and mangos. If you devote all of your time to harvesting clams, you can get 100 clams in a week. If you us all of your time to collect mangos, you can find 200 mangos in a week.
- Assume it is possible to collect fractional amounts of both goods and draw a sketch of your production possibility frontier for a week. (Place mangos on the x-axis and clams on the y-axis.)
- Calculate the opportunity cost of each good. (Use a straight-line PPF for this question because the opportunity cost is constant - it doesn't change)
