Question 8
Distinguish between production efficiency and allocative efficiency. Explain why many
production possibilities achieve production efficiency but only one achieves allocative
efficiency.
Define productivity efficiency and allocative efficiency. What conditions must be met in order to achieve them?
Consider a simple economy which produces two goods; pizzas and tractors. Using the production possibilities boundary and graphs for the pizza and tractor market show and explain how the precise allocatively and productively efficient point on the production possibilities boundary can be determined. Please draw a graph to show, not just write step by step.
