- Please choose answers for what happens to ppf and explanation from the dropdown shownProduction Possibility Frontier (PPF) - This graph shows the maximum combination of two goods that an economy can produce, given its resources and technology. It is used to illustrate the concept of opportunity cost and to explain the trade-offs that must be made when choosing how to allocate resources. Show this graph with an example please.Please help me explain how the economic concept of scarcity links production possibilities curves and comparative advantage. Explain how scarcity is the common foundation for PPCs and comparative adv
- why is it not realistic for a PPF curve to be straight?The PPF curve shows a curved negative relationship between two goods this means that an increase in the production of one good requires which of the followingMatt and Lin are two producers and consumers for lamps and beds. Each of them works 40 hours in a week. Hours required for Matt to produce one unit of lamps or beds are 1 hours or 10 hours, respectively. Hours required for Lin to produce one unit of lamps or beds are 2 hours or 8 hours, respectively. Assuming their PPFs are straight lines. Calculate the correct options that complete the following statements on Matt's PPF. A) If Matt produces only lamps, they can produce ? unit(s) of lamps. If Matt produces only beds, they can produce ? unit(s) of beds B) Calculate the correct options that complete the following statements on Lin's PPF. If Lin produces only lamps, they can produce unit(s) of lamps. If Lin produces only beds, they can produce unit(s) of beds. C) What is the marginal opportunity cost of producing an extra unit of lamps for Matt? An extra unit of lamps costs unit(s) of beds. D) What is the marginal opportunity cost of producing an extra unit of lamps for Lin?…
- Assume there are only two goods in the world: pizza and electric fans. Draw a production possibility frontier (PPF) illustrating the trade-off between the two (specific numbers are not needed – we are only looking for the basic shape of the PPF). On the same graph, draw new frontiers showing 1) what happens if a major plague reduced worldwide population significantly, and 2) if a machine is invented which doubles the number of fans that can be made in a day (but is irrelevant in the production of pizza).Suppose the United States produces only two goods: alfalfa and computers. The following graph shows the United States’s current production possibilities frontier, along with six output combinations represented by black points (plus symbols) labeled A to F. Complete the following table by indicating whether each point represents output combinations that are inefficient, efficient, attainable, or unattainable. Check all that apply. (refer to screenshot for table and graph)Suppose a small economy produces only two goods: apples and oranges. The production possibilities frontier (PPF) for this economy is given by the following equation: PPF: 5A + 3O = 60, where A represents the quantity of apples produced and O represents the quantity of oranges produced. Calculate the opportunity cost of producing one additional apple.
- Why is comparative advantage more important than absolute advantage in determining whether trade is beneficial?Assume that Cliff and Paul were both producing wheat and corn, and each was dividing their time equally between the two. Then they decide to specialize in the product they have a comparative advantage in and trade 3 bushels of wheat for 3 bushels of corn. What would Cliff now be able to consume? Question 10 options: 3 bushels of wheat and 3 bushels of corn 3 bushels of wheat and 4 bushels of corn 4 bushels of wheat and 3 bushels of corn 2 bushels of wheat and 3 bushels of corn
