Suppose the fictional country of Teton produces two types of goods: agricultural and capital. The following diagram shows its current production
possibilities frontier for rice, an agricultural good, and telephoto lenses, a capital good.
Drag the production possibilities frontier (PPF) on the graph to show the effects of a technological advance in medicine that allows workers to live
longer and have extended careers.
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.

CASE STUDY
Jeff Spud from ‘Spud’s Farm’ is your client and is a medium sized potato farmer on the north-west coast of Tasmania.
You are asked to give him financial and business advice on how his business can survive the problems he is facing from powerful buyers of his produce and with competition from other local, interstate and overseas producers.
His previous contracts for his potato crop have been from McCain, a global company. Previously he was able to form a collective with other farmers in the region to negotiate the price to be paid by McCain per tonne. He understands there is some legal issue on negotiating price as a collective and requests advice on this.
Jeff has explained that he can produce 50 tonnes of potatoes per hectare and the contract price per tonne he has been given is $248. He has potentially 45 hectares of farm he can use for potatoes. He has provided you with the estimated fixed and variable costs for each farmed hectare.
Below are some snippets from recent…
