![TRAINS
Suppose Lorenzo is currently using combination D, producing one train per day. His opportunity cost of producing a second train per day is
per day.
es of
Now, suppose Lorenzo is currently using combination C, producing two trains per day. His opportunity cost of producing a third train per day is
per day.
From the previous analysis, you can determine that as Lorenzo increases his production of trains, his opportunity cost of producing one more train
Suppose Lorenzo buys a new tool that enables him to produce twice as many trains per hour as before, but it doesn't affect his ability to produce balls.
Use the green points (triangle symbol) to plot his new PPF on the previous graph.
Because he can now make more trains per hour, Lorenzo's opportunity cost of producing balls is
it was previously.
