frontier.

frontier.
e. sum of the horizontal and vertical distances to the production possibilities
frontier.
Show graphically
1. a PPF for an economy, with the axes labeled ‘consumer goods’ and
producer goods’. Indicate the region that is attainable and the
region that is not. Explain the shape of the curve-what assumptions
did you make in drawing it?
2. A PPF assuming increasing opportunity cost.
• Plot a point (m) to show inefficient use of resources.
• Plot a point (n) to show scarcity.
• What do the points on the PPF represent? (Mid-term 2005).
3. The effect of economic growth on the PPF. (2013)
Answers
1) Concave to the origin because of increasing opportunity cost
Assumtions are:
• Resources are fully and efficiently used
• Technology is constant
• Using given resources only 2 goods can be produced
• Fixed/limited Resources
• Given time period
2) Plot a point inside the curve
Plot a point outside the curve
Effeciency
3) Shift the curve to the right

  • 8. Show graphically 1. a PPF for an economy, with the axes labeled ‘consumer goods’ and producer goods’. Indicate the region that is attainable and the region that is not. Explain the shape of the curve-what assumptions did you make in drawing it? 2. A PPF assuming increasing opportunity cost. • Plot a point (m) to show inefficient use of resources. • Plot a point (n) to show scarcity. • What do the points on the PPF represent? (Mid-term 2005). 3. The effect of economic growth on the PPF. (2013)
  • 9. Answers 1) Concave to the origin because of increasing opportunity cost Assumtions are: • Resources are fully and efficiently used • Technology is constant • Using given resources only 2 goods can be produced • Fixed/limited Resources • Given time period 2) Plot a point inside the curve Plot a point outside the curve Effeciency 3) Shift the curve to the right
