What are the similarities between a consumer's budget constraint and society's production possibilities frontier, not just graphically but analytically?
An economy produces two goods ,X and Y .lt uses two means of production, labour and capital. A unit of labour can produce either 1unit of X or 4units of Y (or linear combination of the two).A unit of capital can produce either 4units of X or 1unit of Y (or linear combination of the two)there are 100units of each means of production. (i) Draw the production possibility frontier of the economy when the two goods can only be produced by a mixture of both factors. (ii)What will be the opportunity cost of X if the economy produces 50units of X ? (iii) Given that the production technology is linear ,will the opportunity cost of X remain unchanged when we produce 90units of X ? (iv)Briefly explain the difference between the PPC with a constant opportunity cost and the PPC with an increasing opportunity cost as more output of one good is produced. Use a well labeled diagram to explain your answer?

If new technology increased the output of quirks by 50%, how many quirks could be produced if 700 quarks were produced? B A. 9 quirks. B. 18 quirks. C. 10 quirks. D. 20 quirks. E. No quirks.
Bruno is a landowner and Angela is a farmer who pays a share of her grain output to Bruno as rent for the use of the land. Consider the following figure, which shows Angela's and Bruno's combined feasible set. Based on the figure, which of the following statements are correct? 12 Bushels of grain Total grain produced Bruno gets What Angela gets What 10 •F Angela's free time H Angela's work Angela's hours of free time 24 Feasible frontier: Angela and Bruno combined OG and/or E can be Angela's choice, depending on the shape of her indifference curves. Angela can be indifferent between G and H. Angela prefers G to working 12 hours and consuming 10 bushels. If Bruno is totally selfish, then H is his most preferred allocation of the four.
If 10 million toy cars are sold. which means that: The production of toy cars is currently at an inefficient level, and to reach efficiency more should be produced. From the data given it is impossible to tell if toy cars are being produced at the efficient level. O The production of toy cars is currently at an inefficient level, and to reach efficiency less should be produced. The production of toy cars is currently at the efficient level. IF 30 million toy cars are sold, - vwhich means that: The production of toy cars is currently at an inefficient level, and to reach efficiency more should be produced. O From the data given it is impossible to tell if toy cars are being produced at the efficient level. The production of toy cars is currently at the efficient level. The production of toy cars is currently at an inefficient level, and to reach efficiency less should be produced. The optimal allocation of resources would result in the production of toy cars.
The budget constraint model and the production possibilities frontier (PPF) model both illustrate (select ALL that apply): O allocative efficiency O productive effieciency O a curved line to represent both the budget constraint and the PPF the tradeoffs in choosing more of one good at the cost of less of the other O comparative advantage O constraints on what we can have due to scarce resources
Based on the figure below, which of the following is correct? Bushels of grain 0 0 12- C 16 Angela's hours of free time MRS - MRT 24 Angela's indifference curves Angela's feasible frontier O The MRS is the trade-off between grain and free time that Angela is constrained to make. At a point to the left of Angela's optimal choice, the MRS is smaller than the MRT. At a point to the right of Angela's optimal choice, she is less willing to trade grain for free time than at her optimal choice. O Since all Angela's indifference curves have the same MRS at 16 hours of free time, any choice of grain at 16 hours of free time is optimal.

Econoline Company produces only two goods and they operate with limited resources. The production manager decides to conduct an analysis of its production possibilities to determine the best use of its limited resources. They create a Production Possibility Frontier (PPF) diagram to represent the maximum combinations of good X and good Y that can be produced with their available resources. As the output of Good Y increases along the frontier, which of the following changes involves the largest opportunity cost? Good Y 20 15 10 5 0 a) 0 to 5 units b) 5 to 10 units c) 10 to 15 units d) 15 to 20 units a Good X d

Suppose the company is currently producing 4 bats and 10 racquets all of which have been ordered by customers. If customer John puts in an order for 4 bats, so that the total number of bats to produce would then be 8, what is be the opportunity cost of filling John's order? 8 racquets 10 racquets nothing 18 racquets

For Tom, if he only produces Good A, then she can produce 4 units of Good A per day. If she only produces Good B, then she can produce 5 units of Good B per day. Which of the following statement is correct about comparative advantage? O a. Tom has a comparative advantage over Sue in the production of Good A. Sue has a comparative advantage over Tom in the production of Good B O b. Tom has a comparative advantage over Sue in both tasks O c. Sue has a comparative advantage over Tom in both tasks O d.

why is the market for recycled aluminium good and the market for plastic bad in the US? Depict this with a firm input choice model. I understand that recycled plastic decreases in qualiy everytime it is recycled while aluminium does not and can be recylced without the decrease in quality, but I dont know how to depict this graphically
