Possibilities Curve
(PPC)
Production
Possibilities Frontier
(PPF)
Also called:
- a graph that shows the
combinations of
two goods the economy can
possibly produce given the
available resources and the
available technology.
FIRST BASIC MODELS OF THE ECONOMY
1.) Full employment: all resources are used
2.) Productive efficiency: goods are being
produced in the least costly way
4.) Fixed 不变 amount of resources
5.) Fixed 不变 amount of technology
3.) Production Possibilities Curve
