Minerals 25 (millions of tons) 20 15 10 5 5 10 15 20 25 Grapes (millions of tons) Figure 1 Production possibility frontier for Highland Towards the right of Figure 1 are two circular red markers with a line between them that you can use to draw a production possibility frontier on Figure 1. You can move the markers with the mouse by clicking on them and dragging. Alternatively, you can tab to each marker and then use the keyboard arrow keys. Decide where to position the red markers based on the information below. There are two countries, called Highland and Lowland, with very different geography. They both produce grapes and dig for minerals, using only labour, with constant returns to scale. Figure 1 shows the production possibility frontier for Highland and the table shows the working population and productivity for Lowland. Working population and production possibilities Working population Production of tons of grapes per person per year Production of tons of minerals per person per…

Table: Crab and Cake Production in Chesapeake Crab Production Cake Production 500 400 300 250 450 200 100 600 700 750 Reference: Ref 2-23 Table: Crab and Cake Production in Chesapeake (Table: Crab and Cake Production in Chesapeake) Use Table: Crab and Cake Production in Chesapeake. The table shows the maximum annual output combinations of crabs and cakes. Given the scarce resources and limited technology, as Chesapeake uses more resources for the production of cakes, fewer resources are available to produce crabs. Can this nation produce 200 crabs and 500 cakes? Is this efficient? Explain.
