The following statements are true regarding the graph given-
A- The slope of the health production function is grater at point A than at point B
B- It exhibits diminishing returns to medical care
D- At some point sending more on medical care is unlikely to extend life or increase the quality of life
ANALYSIS-
The above given points are true regarding the production function graph because the graph gives increasing, diminishing, and after reaching the maximum point , negative returns denoted by point A,B,C respectively by the graph. This means that at initial stage of spending the life will extend but after the maximum point as been reached the spending will start to give the negative returns.

Consider a hypothetical world consisting of only three countries: Liechtenstein, Canada, and France. Each country produces grain. Liechtenstein is a small economy compared to Canada and France and thus cannot influence foreign prices. On the following graph, the supply and demand schedules of Liechtenstein are shown as Such and Dich. Foreign supply schedules of grain are perfectly elastic: Canada is a more efficient supplier of grain than France because its supply price is $0.80 per bushel (Scu), whereas France's supply...
