c. Suppose a small country produces only food and clothing. An earthquake destroys many of the clothing factories, but the ability to produce food is unaffected. Use the 3-point-curve drawing tool to draw a new production possibilities boundary on the graph on the right, labeled c, reflecting the change in the clothing factories. Properly label this line. Place end points one on horizontal and one on vertical axes. Carefully follow the instructions above, and only draw the required objects. Tonnes of Clothing Per Year PPBO Tonnes of Food Per Year
The graph shows the Production Possibility Frontiers of Writ (orange, dotted line) and Greg (green, solid line) when they gather pumpkins or branches individually. Drag and drop the points A, B and C to form the Production Possibility Frontier when Wirt and Greg specialize and exchange the production of branches and pumpkins. Note: Use the circle in the top, left corner of the textbox as the point. Drab Point A as the top left point. Drag Point B to the point at which the joint PPF changes slope. Drag Point C to the bottom right point. Total Branches 6 5 4 3 2 1 O 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 Point A Point B Point C Greg's PPF Wirt's PPF Total Pumpkins

On the following graph, use the blue line (circle symbol) to plot Nick's production possibilities frontier (PPF), and use the purple line (diamond symbol) to plot Rosa's PPF. Nick and Rosa are farmers. Each one owns a 12-acre plot of land. The following table shows the amount of corn and rye each farmer can produce per year on a given acre. Each farmer chooses whether to devote all acres to producing corn or rye or to produce corn on some of the land and rye on the rest. Corn Rye Nick 12 3 Rosa 15 5 (ROSA OR NICK) has an absolute advantage in the production of corn, and (ROSA OR NICK) has an absolute advantage in the production of rye. Nick's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of rye is__________bushels of corn, whereas Rosa's opportunity cost of producing 1 bushel of rye is_________ bushels of corn. Because Nick has a(HIGHER OR LOWER) opportunity cost of producing rye than Rosa, (NICK OR ROSA) has a comparative advantage in the…
Two neighboring island nations, Seychelles and Mauritius, produce iPad's, coffee, or a combination of both. Suppose that they each have 4 million labor hours available per week for production. The following table gives the amount of each product that can be produced using one hour of labor: Country Mauritius Seychelles Mauritius' opportunity cost of produing 1 iPad is iPads (per hour of labor) 12 of coffee. Therefore, 8 Initially, suppose Mauritius uses 1 million hours per week to produce iPads and 3 million hours per week to produce coffee, while Seycheles uses 3 million hours of labor per week to produce iPads and 1 million hours per week to produce coffee. Consequently, Mauritius produces 12 million iPads and 72 million pounds of coffee, and Seychelles produces 24 million iPads and 32 million pounds of coffee. Assume there are no other countries willing to trade with them. So, if Mauritius and Seychelles don't trade with each other, they can only consume what they can produce using…

Ron can either workout or make sushi rolls. It takes him 40 minutes to finish 1 workout and 20 minutes to make 1 sushi roll. If he has 120 minutes to do these two activities, what is the equation of the production possibility frontier (PPF) that describes the tradeoff between these two activities? (Assume workouts are on the x axis and sushi rolls are on the y axis) A y=6-2x B y=3-0.5x C y=3-2x D y=6-0.5x
