Suppose the fictional country of Biscayne produces two types of goods: agricultural and capital. The following diagram shows its current production possibilities frontier for sorghum, an agricultural good, and electric scooters, a capital good. Drag the production possibilities frontier (PPF) on the graph to show the effects of a time-saving innovation in the manufacturing of electric scooters. Note: Select either end of the curve on the graph to make the endpoints appear. Then drag one or both endpoints to the desired position. Points will snap into position, so if you try to move a point and it snaps back to its original position, just drag it a little farther. 180 150 ELECTRIC SCOOTERS (Thousands) 30 30 90 90 120 30 60 90 PPF 120 150 180 PPF ?

Given a production possibilities curve for investment goods and consumption goods, which of the following statements is true? Select one: a. A production point outside the current curve may be attained if the opportunity cost of producing an extra unit of the good measured on the horizontal axis remains constant. b. Acquiring a new technology would push the PPF inwards towards the origin. c. A production point outside the current curve can be efficiently produced with the current level of resources and technology, if the marginal cost of producing one more unit of consumption goods equals the marginal benefit. d. A production point below the PPF suggests that more of both goods can be produced with current resources and technology. e. Shifting resources to make more consumption goods is likely to enable attainment of a production point outside the current curve.
One of the proposals that arose in a previous year's federal budget plan was to reduce the amount of money that people could set aside in their tax-extempt 401k savings plans.How would this proposal affect the economy's production possibilities frontier?use a graph to illustrate your answer.
Production possibilities represent the various combinations of two goods that can be produced given (a) fixed resources and (b) fixed technology. All combinations on the production possibilities curve represent the full-utilization of resources. Any point inside the production possibilities curve indicates that resources are under-utilized and more output could be produced with the available resources. Any point outside the production possibilities curve indicates that the available resources can't support the production of the given output combination. At full-utilization of resources, the only way to increase the production of both goods is by shifting the production possibilities curve. Now consider my backyard garden. I have 100 square feet of allocated space for the vegetable garden which is my fixed resource. for simplicity, I am growing only two vegetables: tomatoes and eggplant. If I grow all tomatoes, I can get a total of 10lbs, and if I grow all eggplant 8lbs. By producing…
The accompanying graph contains the production possibilities frontier (PPF) for Rubberland. Rubberland only makes two products, rubber band balls and rubber hoses, and on a given day can produce according to the PPF in the graph. Point A on the PPF represents the combination of the two goods Rubberland currently produces. When a new method of rubber processing is discovered, the productivity of all Rubberland's inputs increases. Please shift the PPF to show this change. Assume that Rubberland does not make more rubber band balls than they originally made at point A but still maximize their productive capabilities. Move point A to their new production point.

"The state of California is one of the most expensive states to live in across the United States of America. In fact, during the cost of living crisis that engulfed the country in 2022, residents in the Golden State witnessed some of the highest gas prices in the country, with the increased cost of living creating havoc amongst those from low-income households. The pain is set to continue into 2023 with America now on the brink of a recession. In fact, several technology companies situated in the state have started implementing mass layoffs, which will undoubtedly have a knock-on effect on the rest of the community." The mass layoffs of the technology companies will undermine which of the following macroeconomic objectives? A. Price stability. B. Full employment. C. External stability. D. Balance of payments stability.
